Heretic of The Seventh Circle
I wasn't able to parse this, Garth. Can you explain?The savant is closer than one my think but it definitely isnt the tough survivor flavored character.
The point of the features I proposed is exactly to provide benefits to the character in combat, from their intelligence.More intelligently than the other player fighting intelligently ...can role-play ones darnedest and do things you feel are intelligent but honestly.
My character is not me these ideas are about proposing the game enable my characters intelligence provide benefit on the battle field.
Do we? It already doesn't do anything with superiority dice. It's a lunge, it is what it is.There you go... good ideas that pole arm one is interesting but we need to make it distinct from the Battlemaster
The Spanish Circle, or Destreza, focused heavily on a fully extended lunging attack, along with a stance that threatens the opponent as they attack, and makes the fencer a smaller target. The arm is extended in a way that maximizes reach and threatening space, and the footwork allows for the manipulation of the opponent.I kind of feel like style seemed to be less about lunging but getting the benefit without the real life risk
In 4e terms that is like being able to do maneuvers that normally grant combat advantage but you have a work around. Like a feat that means if your own power causes you to grant combat advantage you get a bonus to AC equal to your intelligence
That, or a class feature, sure. I'd also say that grant others combat advantage, repositioning enemies, and avoid opportunity attacks with fancy movement powers, would all fit.
