A knight should be careful about revealing themselves early, or else they will be targeted because of their powerful attack.

<span style="color:rgb(0,255,255);font-family:Arial;font-size:10.5pt;font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;">Must Kill: Town Goal

<span style="color:rgb(0,255,255);font-family:Arial;font-size:10.5pt;font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;">Anything Else: Thought this role would be useful if jailor and ret were dead and there was an arso/sk/WW/GF still runnin around. I made it so that he could not be protected in any way. Ik this is a dumb role :/ thought i’d give it a try tho...

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:11pt;margin-bottom:11pt;"> This is terrible. I mean terrible. I hate this idea and want to wipe it from my memory. It's so powerful, and it buffs town, something completely unneeded.

There is no salvaging this role.

I reject it. Exactly the type of thing I hate to see. That’s ridiculously rude. It does not help the creator of the role, who is new as well and so this is even worse. And the role isn’t even that bad. You could just, idk, modify the powerful attack to basic and change the mechanics a bit? Rather than screaming at this poor dude about how bad his role was?

@pop, I think this role is a bit similiar to vig, i’ll post a review later. Alright, I understand what you mean, but the role is that bad. It's one of the roles I've seen the past few months. It's a straight up buff to the vigilante in every way, so not only is it a re-hash but it is an improvement on an existing role that is created as a seperate role and it is a direct buff to town. I could understand if this was a buff to vigilante, at least then it would be bad, not very bad, but it isn't.

You can't "change the mechanics a bit". Salvaging ideas must be on the basis that it is a good idea, and then balance from there. This is fundamentally a bad idea, because it's unoriginal and straight-up better than another role which serves the same purpose.
