I tried doing the imbed thing and it didn't work. Weird.

For real though this bundle got made rarer by one of Remie's PRs, so now it's almost never a thing when you order one of the bundles. It needs chain lightning to complete the look.

I might be mistaken but it was either you or aranclanos who put weighting on the bundles a month or so back. Sith Lord is the lowest weighting so it's very rare now.

I've not even touched the file with the bundles.
and Aran hasn't touched it since 2014.

Edit: This PR? By Bandit? https://github.com/tgstation/-tg-station/pull/11688

What why were those things given weights, they should just be equal, the entire point of the bundle is to try random wacky shit.

Lightning is pretty powerful - but the sith bundle is pretty shit right now.
The tk is way to clunky to use (and useless when using the dual sword).

This would be amusing to see however. Also pretty sure it's a robed spell, so you'd have to do something with the robes/badmin it into a robeless version for the bundle etc.

We could just make the chaplain robes count as wizard robes for future badminnery events since they come with the bundle.

What's the difference between a wizard and a priest except the source of their power? :^)
We STILL get ahelps telling us to fuck off with button pushing whenever a wizard uses Summon Events.

As the guy most attuned to wizard changes I will codify now that the source of a wizard's power is essentially the coding flavor of badminry.

We are the hidden second pantheon of shenanigan masters, every bit as potent as the more overt badmins that priests pray to.

The wizards have discovered this, and their worship of us has granted them all sorts of bullshit they can use to ruin your day.

---

Chain lightning in the bundle might be cool, since a sith lord doesn't get any sort of ranged option and is expected to keep their hands full of sword at all time. It is a trivial task to make a robeless version of the spell (or make a version of priest robes that are wizard compatible), but one thing I would need is a book to symbolize chain lightning much like all the other one use spellbooks have.

It would honestly probably be OP - but it's so rare, and bundles are such a terrible RNG thing right now I wouldn't even be mad.

Although people probably will be, after the first few time people running around with their reflecting kill sticks and undodgable ranged stuns. Whatevs.

While we're doing that, we should make Gravity Catapult (as in, the mech part) effects as spells, and attach the "push" one to the bundle.
