+ | ===== Player Information == | ||
+ | The old guide entry : [[:guides:character_creation#Gaea]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== General Gaming Experience == | ||
+ | Followers of Gaea are prohibited from using melee weapons. \\ | ||
+ | This can be an impediment for many, but is required for [[:races:Fireborns]] , [[:races:Dragons]] , and [[:classes:Monks]] , \\ | ||
+ | so Gaea might be a natural choice for these, as there are many advantages. \\ | ||
+ | These include immunity to all diseases, death, depletion, and draining attacks. \\ | ||
+ | Other than dragons, who obtain elemental attacks with their claws over time, \\ | ||
+ | Gaea followers may have problems damaging some opponents in [[:skills:melee]] due to restrictions on damage type. \\ | ||
+ | At a high enough [[:skills:praying]] level Gaea will sometimes grant [[#Gloves of the Sun|gloves]] which add a fire attack. \\ | ||
+ | There are a few other items which give an additional attack type, but not many, so melee may be a problem. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Evaluative Criticism == | ||
+ | Gaea's disadvantage is well-known: "NO WEAPON". \\ | ||
+ | To balance this out, Gaea grants a huge amount of special prayers, \\ | ||
+ | fast hp/grace-regeneration, valuable path-attunes and drain/deplete-immunity. \\ | ||
+ | The "goddess of peace" is surely not designed for the newbies. \\ | ||
+ | But I think it is well possible to build a character from this cult. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Additional Comments == | ||
+ | I have added Glove of the Sun which will grant the monk the attack_type of fire \\ | ||
+ | (it is a pair of gloves) to make up for the massive hole there. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | ===== Gaming Tips == | ||
+ | **Being a Gaean can be difficult because weapon use is denied** | ||
+ | |||
+ | * If you choose to worship Gaea it is best to be a [[:races:Fireborns|Fireborn]] or [[:races:Dragons|Dragon]], and/or be a [[:classes:monks|monk]], because they’re already unable to use weapons. | ||
+ | * Using holy word, banishment, and other spells like that is very effective against unnatural creatures like [[:monsters:beholder:Dread]]s and [[:monsters:Beholder:]]s. | ||
+ | * Be careful if you are a Fireborn because you can kill yourself with holy word since Fireborns are unnatural. | ||
+ | * (As a fireborn, I have doubts about this. I walked into a lvl 110 banish from a rod and came out fine. Maybe it’s changed...) | ||
+ | * FIXME Verify if this is the case | ||
