[QUOTE="Chess435, post: 8929851, member: 6675133"] That's a pretty fair take, though I will admit I went with the restriction for a couple reasons. 1. The [Pinnacle] maneuvers in particular are meant to blur the gap between mortal and divine capabilities, in a similar manner to Epic Spellcasting, and will have a 30 level minimum to boot. I don't think it's too unreasonable to reach up in power for a brief and glorious moment and stab that one guy with the force a god considering the power levels the characters are already at. They aren't things you can do in every fight, (as [Pinnacle] strikes can't be recovered by any means) so there's no need to worry about someone gobbling up every goblin that looks at them funny. 2. The ability feels kind of underwhelming on it's own, so giving it the niche option of "kill a guy so dead even the gods can't put him back together" gives it that little extra bit of cool factor that may make someone want to actually use it. You're of course welcome to errata this if you want to use it for your own purposes. [/QUOTE]
