Chasity OVERPOWERED

[DjTeddySpin]

Chastity is a great addition to the spellbook. The spell alone is not overpowered due to the small duration and it doesnt do any 'real' damage at all. It gets powerfull once it's combined with certain spells / ops / attacks. Although I ve never used it and received about a ton of them upon myself I still consider chastity as a nice tool for a underpop strat. allowing the underpop strat to be effective, due to chastity, adds a nice piece of variation to the game.

I share the opinion with bugulu to leave it untouched or slightly increase the rune cost if it really has to be nerfed. Imo chastitity is one of the best implanted changes since I started playing a long time ago.



if you look at it like this 1 chastity is the same as 2 fireballs after 9 hours. thats not a hard / expensive spell as well. I dont hear people complaining about being FB'd to 1-2 ppa. peasant-grow without chastity will be insignificant at that point, with the ever lurking danger the same players logs in 12 hrs later to place you back at the same ppa with minimal effort. I really don't understand the aversion against chastity, if you nerf it there will be simular strategies to keep the same effect. (even deeper peasant reducements)

No, 1 chastity is not the same as 2 fireballs. In war you don't just lose peasants, you lose your army as well. When you get hit(not chained, just once is enough), you might overpop and lose peasants that you cannot replace(which easily amounts to a few thousands of them) even with incoming. Having chastity on is like capping a provinces' ability to grow or draft completely even with incoming lands.

What most of you defending it don't see is that birth rates is not the sole problem, birthrates cap leads to MANY other issues. That's what makes chastity OP. I wonder how many of you actually been in chastity coverage(or if the enemy is doing it right at all), because from what I observe, all you people ever think chastity is about is birth rates that's all.
