Board Thread:Role Ideas (Rework)/@comment-104.254.111.82-20181211175207

Ret is in a pretty bad spot right now: both unfun to play and to play against. It confirms itself, any townie that is ressed, and any mediums that may already be around.

What is the ret's ability was changed to be more akin to a tp role? Every night, they can visit one person; if the person dies, regardless of their faction or role, they are instead ressed, and a message displayed to the whole town.

This would have several effects:

-Rets now require a modicum of skill. Bad rets could accidentally rez evil roles, or be hit by ambusher, medusa, or vet, and thus require a tad bit more thinking than simply clicking on a dead townie's name.

-Mediums and the ressed target are no longer instantly confirmed. Additionally, targets for retri would no longer leave, helping fix the problem that retri often has of townies leaving before getting ressed.

-Ret is no longer a get-out-of-jail free card for powerful roles like jailor and mayor. If a jailor or important role is dead, they stay dead. This helps keep things balanced in favor of evils.

In terms of balance, I'm not certain how well it would work. Thoughts/ideas?
