[QUOTE="Black Knight Irios, post: 4625406, member: 8853"] Hypersmurf you're right on. And this fact gave me some headache before. At lvl1 it is not a big problem to carry let's say 9 nonmagical daggers for Blinding Barrage (BB). At lvl11 if you still have the power you have a +2 or maybe a +3 dagger as a main weapon. But I have no idea how you would have 8 other weapons with the same enhancement bonus...and with higher levels it gets even worse. So obviously all attacks except for one will have lowered chances of hitting the target. And if you would use this power to flee, you would lose all those magic weapons (or if you notice, one round later, that you are going to lose the battle). And I'm not sure if one could argue that you must hold all those weapons in your hands in advance (meaning before you use BB) to use them, that means either you have Quick Draw or you can only throw two weapons or let's say you hold one in your mainhand and Dex Mod in your offhand. And still how many Minor Actions you had to waste to do this... So what do you think? Should we allow those multitarget powers with only one magical weapon (which is thrown over and over again) to work? [Leave Missile Weapons out, different topic with them.] [/QUOTE]
