Chris Smith and I were discussing repair
techniques offline, and the
above were amongst the discussed techniques.
However, I prefer erecting totems next to the
troublesome devices...
I still maintain the usefulness of runestones, incense, and rituals
involving chant and the drawing of "signs of power" around
the device.
As before, no disagreement, I just think those things come built-in...
except for the chant, and for that "down, not across" coupled with
shaking an etherkiller at the thing, should be sufficient...
