Arsonist Buff

[Myamdane]

This concept is rather simple, and I'm sure it's been said before.

The Arsonist should have a similar ability to the Plaguebearer.

E.g.

Arsonist douses Samuel Parris N1.

On N2, Blinky visits Samuel Parris and is also doused. This ensures that more targets are doused quicker.

However, if 2 people visited Samuel Parris, only 1 person would be doused, otherwise, it would be too overpowered.

I hope you take my idea into consideration,

Who gets doused is random, and the Arsonist is informed as to who was doused.

I'll explain it in more simple terms.

If you visit a doused player, you are also doused. This can only occur per player ONCE. So, a maximum of ONE person can be doused from an already doused person.

I agree with Lemonader. Roles that incorporate RNG are way too swing; this isn't the buff that the Arsonist needs. What it could use is more reliability (being able to douse another player if a doused target is killed) and soft immunity to ability prevention (being able to douse another player if jailed/role blocked). This covers those points and a little more.

The Arsonist should not be informed as who was doused. You can douse the same person multiple times in a normal game, and you are given no notification if you doused the correct person. It makes Arsonist far too easy, as even Plaguebearers manage to become Pestilence in like N4 or N5. It also makes Hex Masters extremely weak in comparison, because it's basically an arsonist working for the Coven.
