Talk:The Bee That Stung

Undo revision?

" (Undo revision: Neither is it additive (lacking proofreading & post-reading. Try again).)" I'm not sure I underdtand what ths issue with the past revision is. The current wording is outright incorrect, and states that the doubling is additive, per each wound. The undone wording states that the bee only doubles in weight/xp/lp, and in no way implies that the doubling occurs more than once, either in series of x2/x4/x8 or x2/x3/x4. The current wording "per each wound" states that the doubling is continued and accrues in larger amounts per wound, which after testing, is simply not true. The old revision only states the initial doubling(the only doubling that actually occurs), and does not make the erroneous "per wound" statement--Jorg (talk) 12:57, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

Neither version made any sense to me. + You also removed the "drained" part. Effectively making it say bee-(?:which Bee!) gives, instead of takes, some points.

There is the wound value. Which usually increases, but not always, related to the current highest bee-sting wound a character might already have (but it never decreases). This bee-sting wound value is also given as additional SHP damage to the character.

And there is the effect on mental weight(?) and experience. Here I don't know the relationship with the number of wounds and there values (if any).

I think the whole line is in a bad format and think it just needs a complete rewrite. (For example its using just "Bee" instead of being specific like in "BeeSting"(the wound) or "The Bee That Stung"(the curiosity ... which is the main page target in this case.).)

Just an additional thought on the "double" part. If the agility -1 is applied to the character base level before gilding. And the character also has the guiding to match it. It might take the characters final agility down by -2 instead of -1. Needles to say the related wiki text is totally unclear on this. --.MvGulik. 11:16, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

Resolved by just clearing it. (it still did not make sense after observing some beesting wounds.) --.MvGulik. 02:55, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
