Permanent curses, diseases and spell effects

[GaiaKOS]

.. and you need to collect stuff to get rid of it.
Should be some minor visible things that doesn't affect the gameplay, but will kill the ones with OCD...

- skin turned blue
- gender swapped
- armor made invisible
chime in on suggestions...

When DDO started these were permanent until cured.

People use to have to wait around in the harbor for a cleric to remove curse, disease, blindness etc. Then the Silver Flame Priests started showing up in the bars offering their services for a fee.


Now, the problem is that Turbine added timers so that these spells don't last forever. Personally I think it was a bad move. As players have access to curing these things. Right now many of these are a 5 minute or less hassle to a player that is sad.

There's still particularly irritating debuffs that always seem to last forever, like Symbol of Pain (needs to be dispelled or the break enchantment spell) and Weeping Dirge (immunity to fear prevents it, but once you have it the only thing that gets rid of it is wait, use the remove fear spell, or shrine).
