[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1594841, member: 5777"] Energy stun does a bit less damage, but has a chance of 'stunning'. That is a huge advantage or energy stun!! ;) Dont know about you, but when I am in a fairly new woodland area you cant see people who hide down behind a lush bush. Or behind a fir tree ;) I dont know what the dmg says about it, but I do know that if you are 50+ feet away, moving carefully and hiding then you are effectively invisible to people looking for you. Plus, you dont need a tree that fills up your whole square anyway.. Where are the rules for this anyway? are they in the srd somewhere? 30% sounds like a very strange number no matter what. Still, with a pretty hefty bonus to hide from the cover, plus being a good distance away, it just hasnt been useful. along with being able to hide behind trees, in growths, and in ditches. The woodlands are like that ;) In any event, in instances like this it is generally better to have the area of effect. When in dungeon type areas the extra distance matters effectively not at all, and area of effects can be used to blast around corners or through obsticles to hit those behind them. Like I said, both have their uses. [/QUOTE]
