This should be all of the sentinel classleads!
Bard
----
* Removed the deprecated STANCE entry of bard gmcp charstats. I'd like to add stuff in for bard here, but the needing target context for a lot of this makes it very easy to make this information misleading in a gmcp manner. Something I'm thinking about, though.
Dragoncraft
-----------
* LEAP sped up a bit. Still not as fast as the artied one or certain other leaps, but no reason it had to be so slow.
Metamorphosis
-------------
* (Sentinel): New JAGUAR power: BLOODSCENT.
* (Sentinel): New jaguar power: DISCERNMENT (note: longer eq than other discern style abilities).
Skirmishing
-----------
* SKULLBASH damage reduced slightly. I am happy to revisit this and make more changes if its still too good for the investment, but I'm conscious we're making a fair few changes to sentinel here and don't want to muddy the waters too much.
Spiritlore
----------
* New ability: KHENTIMEN. Some lore suspicions likely confirmed with this one...
Woodlore
--------
* When you lay a SNARE or NOOSE, any SNARE or NOOSE in the opposite direction from the adjoining room is wiped.
* You can now LAY traps directly, without preassembling. You can still assemble because this is actually cheaper (In hindsight I recall this is why we did it). Essentially, to illustrate: three rope at trans will get you four snare traps if you assemble. When laying directly, one rope will get you one snare (obviously, since you can't lay more than one). So laying directly is more convenient, but slightly more expensive commodity wise just by its nature.
Misc
----
* Various major forest areas are now more likely to roll the FLUX conquest condition.
* LEAP style skills (including MOUNTJUMP) are no longer sped up by the nimble trait or other racial benefits.
Enjoy!
