Addressed to: Everyone
Razmael has gone rogue! After seeing how much fun Keroc has been having updating abilities to work in PvE, I decided to ignore his protests and try my hand at my own.
CHANGELOG:
Do note that most of these changes will not work on superior denizens. (HELP SUPERIOR DENIZENS)
Deathlore/Ancestry
------------------
* Reave/Sacrifice can now target NPCs.
Bladefire/Chirography
---------------------
* Penance/Lurk can now target NPCs.
- This works differently to the PVP version - it will kill the NPC when it drops below 50% max health.
Corpus/Ascendance/Extirpation
-----------------------------
* Fling/Crusade/Ragdoll can now target NPCs.
Geometrics/Cultivation
----------------------
* Pattern/Recrudescence can now target NPCs, allowing Crux/Sadness afterimages to trigger on them afterwards.
Astranomia
----------
* Superbolide now damages NPCs.
Gravitation/Runecarving
-----------------------
* Collapse/Omophagia now damages NPCs.
Woodlore/Artifice
-----------------
* Thornspray/Gloam now damages NPCs.

------------------------
* Judgement/Execution can now target NPCs.
Terramancy/Wavebreaking
-----------------------
* Chasm/Drown can now target NPCs.
Shamanism/Experimentation
-------------------------
* Omen/Causality can now target NPCs, with stack count randomised on detonation.
Tekura
------
* Roundhouse kick now strikes NPCs.
* I decided Panda Stance wasn't performing enough. There's now a critical hit chance bonus that scales with how drunk you are.
Tenacity
--------
* Dropstrike can now target NPCs.
Predation
---------
* Hostage can now be taken on NPCs, and they can be moved, released or executed as normal.
Subterfuge
----------
* Abduct can now target NPCs.
Arcanism/Esoterica
------------------
* River/Alluvion now pushes NPCs caught in the current.
Domination/Contracts
--------------------
* Pit/Maw now pulls in NPCs.
Purification/Ravaging
---------------------
* Purgatory/Perdition now pulls in fighting NPCs.
Songcalling
-----------
* Song of Oblivion now affects NPCs.
Penned by my hand on Quensday, the 15th of Severin, in the year 18 AC.
