[FULL] Star Wars D20 Revised Episode III - Episode IV

[Kemrain]

Well, my little droid does hide in shadows a lot; maybe I'll bump into one by accident...

Hey, it's Star Wars... much weirder things have happened.

This is true.

Ambrus, could you explain to me how the Force Stealth skill works? The description in the book seems.. Lacking.

- Kemrain the Stealthy and Confused!

Edit: From another thread:

Its an opposed roll. They roll to sence you then you roll to beat it. There apears to be no other modifiers other than your ranks.

The DC is usually 25 - Force-User level. So, until I get really powerful, it's better not to use the skill at all?

That seems kinda.. Pardon my tongue.. Freaking idiotic.

Ambrus, is this the case?

- Kemrain the Dissatisfied.

Ambrus, is this the case?

Well, since both you and Aeson have read the skill's description lately and both have some experience playing force users, then you're both two steps ahead of me at the moment. In short, I don't know. I searched the both the WotC Jedi Counseling articles and JD Wicker's own forums and haven't found anything that would change or clarify the description of the skill in the book. Sorry.

 

[Kemrain]

That's quite all right, Ambrus. Thanks for your effort. WotC made an odd call. No worries.

shadowbloodmoon, again in reference to skills, I must ask about synnergy bonuses. Star Wars does not specifically mention what skills offer synnergy to what, but ti does mention them. Looking through the Rogue's Gallery thread, I was shocked to find not a single skill that grants synnergy in DnD at the requisite 5+ ranks. I might have missed something, but I was suprised to find no information one way or the other. I'm looking for a diplomatic character, and the Bluff and Sense motive synnergies to Diplomacy, Disguise, and Intimidate specifically mentioned in DnD would be terribly useful in making my character concept effective. Do you use Skill Synnergy, and if so, should I pester you in each instance or should I merely assume the standard DnD synnergies where appropriate?

- Kemrain the Sorry to be a Bother and Thankful for Your Time.

Kemrain,

Firstly, unlike in DnD, Skill synergies are given ad hoc by the GM in Star Wars, depending on the situation. Therefore, I will add them when I see them...

As far as Force Stealth goes, it is similar to the Move Silently/Listen or Hide/Spot combinations. It is an extra Stealth skill that is opposed by an opponent's See Force skill.

I hope that answers your questions. If you have anymore, feel free to ask...

Kemrain, I hope that answers your questions. If you have anymore, feel free to ask...

She also wanted to know your opinion about the Jedi Consular vs Force Adept skill lists. Essentially, the Force Adept fits her character concept better but the Jedi Consular's skill list fits her social character better. She wanted to know if you'd be willing to allow some flexibility in regards to character creation. See post #204.

I wonder where Nephtys is; it's been over three days now since your last IC post.

 

[shadowbloodmoon]

Oh, I forgot to mention that I was still contemplating the idea of switching the skill lists. For now, tentatively, I'll allow it, simply because I like the character concept. I will crunch some numbers later and make tweaks if necessary, but at first glance, I'll let it be.

I was just going to check on Nepthys myself. He hasn't been here in some time, so I'm curious too....

I'll let you know what I find out and I will be posting the next round soon.

Thanks, shadowbloodmoon! I'll get working on this guy, stat-wise, and post what I have real soon. I'm kicking around a whole bunch of backstory ideas, and I'll have those up soon too for your perusal. Excited!

This is true.

Kemrain, can you tell me where you see it is 25- force user level? I haven't seen that in the book. I still think it is an opposed roll vs force sense.

And I hope you do go with the Clawdite after all the work I put into it.

Look up See Force. It gives more information under that skill's description.

It says if there is no Force Stealth to oppose then the DC is 25- force user level. First sentence of the last paragraph under check in See Force.
