[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5898304, member: 19675"] Hey, all! I'm playing Magnus Skyhammer, a Dwarf Starlock/Psion who just hit 6th level (on his way to being a Dreamwalker) and I'm having a bit of trouble deciding on his feat. [COLOR="black"][/COLOR] My choices are: 1) Focused Talent: Shaper (PSP p141): Minor Creation & Shaped Consciousness as Daily powers. [COLOR="blue"]Appeals to me very much from a RP perspective, but isn't the strongest from a mechanics view.[/COLOR] 2) Melee Training PHB2 p187/HotFL p316: Choose ability other than Str- make MBAs w/proficient weapon using that stat's bonus for Att rolls & 1/2 bonus for damage. [COLOR="blue"]A very dwarfy feat, and could come in handy- we just did a stretch of 6 encounters without an extended rest, and Magnus spent some nontrivial time on the front line...and not for the first time. Anything that helps in this regard would be valuable.[/COLOR] 3) Sacrifice to Caiphon (DMA p50): if you miss all targets of a Warlock Encounter power, take damage equal to the power's level to recover the power. [COLOR="blue"]Tasty & powerful, but as a multiclassed PC, he won't have as many Warlock encounter powers as would be typical for his class.[/COLOR] 4) Durable PHB1 p194: +2 Healing Surges. [COLOR="blue"]See my notes on Melee training.[/COLOR] 5) Toughness PHB p201: gain +5HP per tier. [COLOR="blue"]See my notes on Melee training.[/COLOR] So, what do you ENWorlders think? [/QUOTE]
