As annoying and un-intuitive as it is, if you watch some of my earlier LPs, that's all I did was fumble, too. I even vaguely knew the rules, and fumbling was my go-to.
Then Chaco contractually asked me to do a hold of his where you have to manipulate serpents from across the room, so I kinda had to know the rules. I'm wondering if a quiz would be handy. "
If you're here, the serpent is here, and the time is this, what direction is the serpent going to move."
Either way, I literally forced myself (it took awhile) to figure out how it works, and then I could sit in a position and reliability in my head say "
And if I do this, the serpent is gonna move up into the hole. Understanding the N>
E>
S>
W kinda gives you some idea how hard getting a serpent to go in a direction is going to be. It's very tricky to make a serpent go west in open space (and not facing you) unless he's already heading in that direction.
I know you don't want to learn it, so maybe this is a moot post, but I really, really began to appreciate them once I sort of quizzed myself in a few situations until I nailed it down.
Wraithwings and goblins are still 30% a mystery to me.
