[QUOTE="knightofround, post: 5241067, member: 27884"] You know, Stalker0 brought up an interesting idea in another thread about ongoing damage. Just make all the saves in the round the damage was taken and apply it immediately. What if we applied this idea to monsters? Shake off Free Basic Epic Action Personal At-will You take X damage in order to roll a saving throw vs an effect that contains one of the following conditions: Stun, Daze, or Immobilized, even if the effect does not normally allow a save. This damage cannot be reduced in any way. You can only use this power during your turn before you have taken any standard, movement, or attack actions. You can use this power Y times per round. This action does not count toward your limit of free actions per round. This way, (save ends) effects are more deadly than "until end of PC's next round" effects. And it's not a "pay X to get out of jail" fee...otherwise you might as well replace dazed/stunned/immobilized conditions in powers with extra flat damage instead. [/QUOTE]
