I think people take me WAY too seriously.

Ltheb Silverfrond said:Just skimmed the update. Some of the new portfolio powers made me cackle at how ludicrous they are .
Ltheb Silverfrond said:Especially the destruction portfolio. The entire thing. Destroying Timelords!?! (The ability is vague. I take it it means one can ignore transmortality? Since beings of Timelord stature can play rock-paper-scissors with portfolios, I would guess double-destruction = finisher-move-mode.)
Ltheb Silverfrond said:And timelords with Thousandfold hit points? Man, thats a lot. (Is that a multiplied factor when becoming a Highlord? Ex: does a highlord gain two-thousandfold normal hit points?)
Ltheb Silverfrond said:My suggestion for the single Destruction power = Disjunction, and the Double should be completely sundering it permanently. (Can't be reforged/regenerated/whatever)
Ltheb Silverfrond said:I think I might be able to get through another few pages of chapter 4. It just takes a while to go over every sentence, and make sure everything is grammatically correct. If I throw another file together, it'll be the same format as the first: Grammar first, rules questions 2nd. (I suspect I shall have quite a few rules questions by the end, since some of the powers are probably intentionally vague in their descriptions)

Pssthpok said:Will the Body/Mind/Soul/Spirit abilities be revised?
Pssthpok said:Will we see more detailed instructions for how to arrange ability scores (so as to prevent negative ability scores via the template penalties), or will that element be changed at all?
Pssthpok said:I like the new ability score tables.
Pssthpok said:I'll try to put together some ideas for your side-thorn portfolio abilities.
Pssthpok said:I'm also looking forward to the new format.
Pssthpok said:Dominion was a nice addition, btw; will all portfolios have this add-on?
Upper_Krust said:Hiya mate!
I thought I did revise them?
AC and DC are based on divine rank now, while Attack and Saves go with ability score bonuses.
Yes, especially in the portfolio templates I have a number of changes planned for the new format.
I think ideally I should really have brainstormed evey portfolio longer than I did and came up with a lot of unique stuff.
But when you consider I probably have designed more abilities for Ascension than 15 players handbooks you can forgive me for trying to bring a bit more structure to the portfolios in terms of content. Unfortunately that structure came at a price and you end up trying to shoehorn stuff in to fit the parameters.
What I would like to do (although seems unlikely now), is rewrite the entire feat system (and by extension divine abilities) from the ground up so that you have feat trees like power attack I, II, III, IV, V, VI.
Glad you liked it but thats only the first incarnation, I'll try and expand it a touch.
Yes all portfolios will have it, some I couldn't fit in, but when I make the change to the new format it should open up the appropriate space.
