Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wrahn" data-source="post: 3007575" data-attributes="member: 9191">I would disagree on the interpretation that a lore roll will give obscure and relevant information about everything we meet.  The DC is set if there is relevant information to be had.  For example,  "King Fordle has a great love of any vintage from the Kelrupt region." is both obscure and could be relevant (if we need to bribe him or make a gift for him), but hardly what I would call omniscience.Lore is not appropriate for everything, a good example of that is the healer.  There is no reference for a healer servant of the Perfect, there is no reason Lore would give me anything.I think you are taking the ability too literally, if I happen to roll Lore about some subject and there is no information available, then it doesn't matter what is rolled, there is no information there.But hey, we obviously have a different view on what the ability does.  I would consider Lore powerful but no where near game breaking.  Let me end my side of this discussion with these two thoughts:  Lack of information is currently stopping the group from doing anything, current topics of conversations include consulting/kidnapping sages to learn more.  Shouldn't an epic loremaster know at least as much as a sage?  And second, access to general information will speed the game along.Currently I would ask you to look at Mind Rape (from the BoVD) and where it says I know everthing the target does, whether you are willing for that to happen.</blockquote>
