Re: Divine Power and Tensers Transformation AB

Also, the AB cap gained from sources other than feats or class level pre 20 is still +20 without a Hak.
So there's not really much that can be done AB for the spell with the hardcoded +20 cap.

Re: Divine Power and Tensers Transformation AB

Traditionally, any build that uses a single ability or spell as its mainstay is doomed to run into numerous problems.

Re: Divine might and divine shield

We've debated this behind the scenes and decided against making the abilities free actions because the coding is all or nothing. Either all classes that can use the ability have it as a free action, or none do, and we didn't like the idea of clerics or weird bard mixes having access to powerful near...

Re: War Cry

Behind the scenes, I'm probably the Bard's strongest advocate, and everything BannyD says concerning the Bard's power level is true. They are too strong in too many roles without any real weakness. It's that simple.

Also, Bards won't be getting more bonuses any time soon.

Re: Bigsby Crushing hand bug

When we overhauled the whole series of bigsby's about 1.5 years ago, most of the spells were reworked to use total discipline score and not base ranks. This created a fairly large imbalance in the caster's favor, and was changed to use base ranks only as a way of bringing the spells back into line. ...

Re: Unable to Delete Characters

Send a PM to Linuxpup explaining your account name, players names, and provide old cd-keys so he can confirm.

Re: pure ranger idea

The bonuses intended are fairly powerful, its a matter of finding the time to enter them in. I might spend some time trimming here and there for the next dev who wants to tackle em.

Re: AC Deflection Penalty

They could be getting an unintentional boost now that just about all gear merges, so multiple stealth items would stack instead of just the highest amount.

Thanks for the heads up.

Re: Critique my comp build

You can get an 8800GT or a 9600GT for 200 or under these days, depending on budget. I'm looking into getting two MSI GT 8800's with a custom copper cooling on em from Newegg for pretty cheap.

Re: Power Word Spells

I'll go ahead and give a thumbs up to making them better with focuses. The bigger trick is the balancing act that follows, esp considering when immunities to both spells can completely negate them. Do some number crunching and get back to us. I love when the players throw hard numbers at us to suppo...

Re: Arrow of Death

Last time I checked, we had altered Death Arrow to be 10+AA level. Any high level AA's care to confirm or deny, or Linux check the script when you get a chance?
