[QUOTE="Jeremy, post: 151264, member: 4036"] Very astute Veldrane. As DotF is based on "default" Greyhawk setting, the only deities listed with the Madness domain are the Greyhawk trio Boccob, Erythnul, and Vecna. But in the FR, those three translate to (FRCS pg. 9) Azuth, Mystra, Savras, Velsharoon, Cyric, Garagos, Malar, and Shar. Very nice. Well done. Meanwhile, into my head pops this little idea... How about a 16th level [i]schism[/i]'d psion who throws out a quickened mass concussion as a free action, a twinned mass concussion with his standard action, and another twinned mass concussion with his extra partial mental action (---then uses his move action to hide of course :))? That'd be 35d4 damage over a 40 ft diameter sphere at a range of over 1000 feet. And with the highest DC possible: No Save. :) 35d4 is what? 87 points of damage average? Blast. Too weak. Hmmmm.. Too bad you can't maximize those, it's not like you haven't got the power points for it. That'd be 140 damage, no save for the bargain price of 63 of around 203 of your power points. Of course, a 20th level psion could do it if he had a torc of psionic might... Oh well, I guess the only psion smacks are going to be half echo's of arcane ones or possibly.... Hmmmm... Level 16 18 CHA human telepath takes greater psionic focus in telepathy, manifests a 3x fortified animal affinity for a maximum of 8 points of charisma, has a cloak of charisma +6, a medium shield of command (+4 competence bonus to CHA), +4 from level ups, +4 from a tome of leadership and influence, and is wearing a psionatrix of telepathy has a DC 30-50 Will Save for his True Domination power... Oh well, I guess he can go Dominate one of the other smackdown characters to do 200+ points of damage. Or maybe a Egoist/Savant/Nomad who really needs something taken care of can bump their DC by 20-40 with psychofeedback and give someone a DC 90 disintegrate or some such. That might be promising, but only as a last ditch effort, and if it's last ditch, you probably wouldn't have the 89 power points you need to do it, even if you had 200+ to start the day with... Well, maybe... Bah. Wimpy psions. :D [/QUOTE]
