|c=m,d&lt;br /&gt;
|p=&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;From what I knew, spells like FOC, REG ,HL, INNO, etc had no direct correlation with your empathy skill. Is this just a lore connection or are these spells going to be tied directly into empathy in 3.0? Or was I wrong in the first place?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Heart Link|HL]], IIRC, already requires intact [[Empathy skill|empathy]] to use. [[Innocence]] does not, but to my mind this (and compel) is a manifestation of empathic manipulation, bolstered by magic, so to me it does make sense to require at least some amount of Empathy to use those.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As to [[Fountain of Creation|FoC]] and [[Regenerate|Regen]] ... the idea is that as a totally [[Empathic shock|shocked]] [[Empath]], you will still have access to some self-healing ([[Heal Wounds|HW]], [[Heal Scars|HS]], [[Heal|HEAL]], [[Flush Poisons|FP]] and [[Cure Disease|CD]]) but you won&amp;#039;t be a stupendous healing badass anymore. This is for game balance reasons, mainly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Requiring Empathy to use the healing spells is definitely a shift, but again, I want the shock-lock state to have some teeth. Obviously an Empath who hasn&amp;#039;t hit the circle cap yet will have some incentives to keep their empathy intact, but I don&amp;#039;t want to encourage [[Empaths]] who have hit the circle cap to view shock-lock as the default state. Thus, some of the more awesome healing spells do require at least some empathy to use.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once we get to that point I will see about trying to figure out how to fit this into the lore without doing it any truly grievous insults.&lt;br /&gt;
