Embrace do?

Well yes, I'm the only person who doesn't know how to play Dwarf Fortress mode yet so I play Adventurer.

I tried out a Vampire Mage and tested out its skills, theres one skill called Embrace....

When I cast it, I lapse in and out of consciousness and eventually die of suffocation. There is no targeting. What kinda sick joke is this? (or maybe it's a bug)

[Putnam]

It's probably an adventure-only bug, since Meph doesn't test adventure mode.

[Dakilven]

Guess that makes the entire vampire mage thing kinda pointless then if there is no vampirism involved...

But it's alright! Guess it'll be fixed in a few patches. Thanks for clarifying.

[Meph]

The fortress AI uses the Vampires Embrace to insta-kill an enemy, didnt knew that adv.-mode targetting would target yourself.

[Blue_Dwarf]

I think you need to post this in the general Adventure mode. I don't think anyone else has succeeded in drinking his own blood to death yet.

[Putnam]

It doesn't actually suck blood.

Haha, try it for yourself. You literally just fall into a coma and die. No bleeding, no nothing, just suffocation.

start up adventure mode then make a Vamp Mage and cast embrace, enjoy trip back to the main menu

[Meph]

Lol. Yeah, its insta-kill. ^^ But it shouldnt target you...

In the end it should result in a vampire mage that is a bloodsucker and now and then sucks your dwarves dry, but if he has been in combat and killed an enemy, he doesnt need blood for a while.

[Dakilven]

I guess this is just a bug report then, Embrace in adv mode kills yourself!

Free cyanide pill, but Panic button on Fire mage is also a cyanide pill too (you always melt )

[Putnam]

That interaction will never, ever be used. Any ATTACKs with a SELF_ONLY go unused. Always. Also, it's missing LINE_OF_SIGHT, which I think is why it doesn't work in adventure mode.
