Avenger - Bond of Retribution question

[DarkLord Of DForce]

Is there anything like Power of Skill, that gives Overwhelming Strike as a Basic Attack, for Bond Of Retribution?

I sure would love to find something.

Thanks!

Off the top of my head, no.

Well dang.

I could be wrong, tho. I'm a rules lawyer, not an encyclopedia of every option ever.

Understood. I went through all the domains and couldn't find anything either.

Too bad, I was hoping to be able to use BOR for OAs, MBAs, and 2-Weapon Opening, since it is Radiant, and get the 19-20 crit range with Radiant Servant.

I know, why not just get a 2nd Radiant Hammer....well....our DMs....ad nauseum...

Well, the good news for any divine caster is that Crusader Weapons, as of PHB 3, now confer the Radiant keyword to any power its used with, as 'Changing the damage type of a power' now grants the keyword.

Oh sweet - I gotta get my greedy mitts on a copy of PHB3 quick.

Not much to see there regarding this. It's just a new rule for Damage Type Keywords. If you change the damage of a power, you change the keywords of that power, gaining new ones and losing old ones. In the case of a Crusader's weapon, it changes half the damage, so it adds Radiant, but it doesn't turf the old ones.

The only exception is Poison, which is retained if it has non-damaging effects.

Minus the poison exception, wasn't that more or less what the most recent eratta also did? If so, he may be able to convince his DM without picking up the PH3.

I didn't notice it, I think that had everything to do with item keyword inheritance, which still applies as it always has.
