[QUOTE="Skyscraper, post: 4387040, member: 48518"] Gotcha. I haven't compared the damage with others mind you, it just appeared low. I guess the basic attack damage should also be balanced with the whole creature design. The devil doesn't have a big damage output so i guess the +4 is relevant. This is a hard one because a contract with a devil is seen as a role-play situation with long-term consequences. Hmm. If i were to suggest anything, i think i'd go with something more, well, evil. We [I]are[/I] talking about a devil here :devil: So how about: [B]:close: Contract Violation[/B] (standard; recharge :5: :6:) <> charm, psychic + 12 vs Will; target chooses: either it uses an at-will attack against an ally who is a legal target as an immediate reaction, or it takes 2d8 + 5 psychic damage. Not sure it is worded properly, i took only a few minutes to think it over. Not sure the title is still appropriate, but it's close enough. Right, i hadn't noticed it was encounter, sorry about that. It makes sense as an encounter power, essentially giving this creature second wind. Edit: you could even give the devil bonuses pursuant to the sould harvest, e.g. either +2 to all defenses or +2 on its attacks and damage until the end of its next turn. This to show that it has gained power temporarily due to this sould harvest. Sky [/QUOTE]
