[QUOTE="EP, post: 3590637, member: 41744"] Link Through Time: The Echocaller and another creature mirror one another's actions, both stepping to the right if one steps to the right, both attacking if one attacks. The Echocaller and the creature exactly mimic the moves of the other. The target gets a Will save vs 10 + Wisdom Modifier + 1/2 Class level to resist. The target must be within 5' for every two class levels when Link Through Time is cast. This costs one Echo to activate. What is the benefit to this though? Even if the Echocaller can attack at the same time as his target, he's still being attacked. Maybe if the connection is the same but grants the Echocaller a +X bonus to AC and save throws as he can predict the exact actions taken against him using Link Through Time. There are a couple other abilities similar to this: very cool, but no explained benefit to the Echocaller other than allowing someone who would have been attacked by the target gets a chance to counter with a different move. But in game terms, that just means the attack gets rolled again and everyone can hope the DM rolls a different number. Then again, doesn't that mean that if time is being shifted back, EVERYONE is subject to it? With some benefits on how the Echocaller can use these echoes in battle, it'll give greater purpose to these abilities. Very cool though. [/QUOTE]
