Ambush Choke and Learning 12/30/2017 01:06 PM CST
Ambush Choke can now be used on creatures (and only creatures) even if they already have a mouth full of dirt. You use the dirt, get the RT, and learn skills, but don't reapply the timer. Hopefully this will make low level Debilitation a little easier, even if you still need a ton of dirt.

There is a short timer where you can learn again, but it's significantly less than the full timer of the choke effect. You won't use the dirt or get the RT if you aren't going to learn.

This is live in Prime and Plat.

Honestly, without hyperbole, this is probably my favorite change of 2017. I've banged that drum for years. Thank you.

I just want to say thank you. It is appreciated and heartening to see you working on Thief Guild bringing changes.

I'd love to see the dirt in hand requirement go away. Either have it auto pull from a dirt container or just snag some off the ground -- both requiring a free hand. Seems like a negligible change...

To that end, maybe dirt containers for indoor dirt throwing while an outdoor environment would simply let you pick it up on the fly. Opportunity for a bit more flair based on environment -- sand, rubble, bark, dried leaves (quickly crushed in one motion), etc...
