General Discussion Thread VIII

[orsal]

It just popped into my mind, but the Thrallherd PrC isn't available, is it, as its mainfeature is a beefed-up Leadership feat?

It's not in the SRD, so it wouldn't be available regardless unless it were proposed and approved.

It's not in the SRD, so it wouldn't be available regardless unless it were proposed and approved.

And, of course, to propose it, you'd have to rewrite it as to not infringe.

I made a suggestion on the debated Outrider power btw, so judges please review that thread and provide input.

 

[Knight Otu]

Thrallherd is in the SRD, actually, as a psionic PrC.

Good question... We need to reignite some discussion I think.

Blink and you missed it department:

I'm pretty sure I remember that the first post of each Red Dragon Inn thread contained a map of the lands around Orussus. Yet, when I look at the first post of the current RDI thread, I don't see it. Is there a busted link or something?

 

[Bront]

It was there, link must have gone bad...

I've got a couple of rules questions for you folks. I've been considering a psychic warrior character, should one of my current characters get themselves perished.

1. Can a Psychic warrior character with the Claws of the Beast power take the Improved Natural Attack (Claws) feat? (Which he would only be able to use when he has Claws manifested, or when he happens to have a claw attack).

2. Can a Psychic warrior character with the Claws of the Beast power and the Bite of the Wolf power take the Multiattack feat? If so, would this feat only work when he had both his Claws of the Beast power and his Bite of the Wolf power manifested?

3. If a Psychic warrior character has both Claws of the Beast and Bite of the Wolf manifested, are all three primary natural weapons? If not, does the Psychic warrior get to choose which are primary and which are secondary? Can he change this choice?

Thanks in advance folks.

 

[Bront]

Probably a better question for the rules section, but...

1) I'd say no, as it's a natural ability, not a enhanced ability the feat augments.

2) Not sure, since in theory you can multi-attack with your two hands, so I'd say, probably.

3) I'd say you probably could use either as primary, but you have to declair one only, and the other is secondary, but they can swap.

1) Yes, the listed prerequisite is Natural Weapon, and you do have one from the power. You lost the feat's effect when the power is not active, and you certainly don't care.

2) This one is more tricky, since it states natural attacks as part of the prereq. I would say yes, and yes it would only work with both active to meet the prereq.

3) You choose the secondary during each attack routine.

I disagree because, unlike PrCs, feats can be entered via enhanced abilities. Witness the Fighter with 10 Strength and a Belt of Strength +4 who takes Power Attack and loses it without the belt.

Ahh, I never cared for that interpretation, but if it's RAW, then it's acceptable.
