But UA is actually wrong, it should be 12+NPC's total attack bonus because of the way checks versus a DC work in d20 rules.
Sure an' begorrah, you're absolutely right, Mr. McS!

DanMcS said:It's the same as the way psionics worked in 3.0. It never seemed to work real well. Our psion had a good enough bonus, and would target weak saves I think. So if he hadn't been rolling, but had been taking 10, then the monster would probably have blown the save. Since he was rolling, he had a 50% chance of being absolutely screwed. Putting in the spell roll was double jeapordy for him, and always seemed to result in the player going "CRAP!"
So we never used that for wizards, and took it out for the psion and let him use 10 as the base for his powers.
