[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5495752, member: 2011"] [OOC] Write it however you want. But, I will tell you. As a DM on two adventures here in LEB, it's a royal pain in the butt to have to look the powers of the PCs up every time. Some players merely write down the name of the power. Big fricking whoop. As a DM, the player just added 5 minutes to my time because I have to go look up a power now. Minimally, you should state the following with that power so that the DM and other players do NOT have to go look it up: "Allies within 5 squares of Orsik gain +2 damage TENT Orsik" 1) This states which allies. 2) This states what they gain. 3) This states exactly when it ends. Do what you want, but I do know that I am not the only DM who gets frustrated when players don't have the common courtesy to write down exactly everything that is happening for their powers, feats, items, etc. But just writing down that Rune of Mending gives +2 to damage is lazy and lame. Your choice, but don't be surprised when people don't know what your power actually does and the team loses some of the benefits of it. It has already happened once here and you are now claiming that you are still going to write a minimal amount of information down. It'll happen again dude. [/OOC] [/QUOTE]
