"Discipline of Death" Feat

[Istar]

This says you get +5 to death saving throws.

On a normal death saving throw if you get a 20 you get to spend a healing surge.

does this mean if you roll a 15 and you have this feat, you got to 20 and you get to spend a healing surge.

 

[FireLance]

Yes, it does.

Stack it with the sun warpriest domain ability to spend a healing surge on a rollof 13+ on a d20.

 

[Korgoth]

Yes, it does.

Stack it with the sun warpriest domain ability to spend a healing surge on a rollof 13+ on a d20.

And then if you're human....

 

[FireLance]

And then if you're human....

You could take Stubborn Survivor from the Forgotten Realms Players' Guide and get a +2 to saving throws when you have no action points.

However, Human Perseverence from the PH grants a +1 feat bonus to saving throws, and would not stack with Disciple of Death.

I was thinking of the Heroic Effort thing from HotFL. That's a retroactive +4, though in retrospect that's only if you "fail" the save. So if you already have a +7, you will only have a recoverable failure on a roll of "2".

For some reason I had it in my head that you could add that +4 whenever you wanted, but the trigger is actually only on a failure.

Actually, if you're fortunate enough to have a Cleric in your party with the Harbinger of Rebirth feat, you're REALLY golden.

The Cleric grants +5 to Death Saving Throws to all allies within 5 squares.

 

[RangerWickett]

Isn't there a magic item (Raven Queen Amulet?) that gives a bonus to death saves?

 

[UngeheuerLich]

there is the diehard feat that adds +5 to death saving throws, when you are down to 2 failed death saves:

auto recovery

Do I think it is overpowered? not really... when you are down something went wrong before

 

[Istar]

Combine this with a Revenant Warden, who has lots of surges and HP, can he die.

Cause he can still do stuff when under 0 HP, isnt it a Standard action, and also a minor as well at Paragon with a feat.

Use going into negative HP and then bouncing back as THP

The 4e CharOp boards have been playing around with this for a month or two. Here's one of the builds they came up with so far: The unkillable avenger.
