[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 2939256, member: 13966"] He was putting them up for comparison or something, not presenting GWS as a new feat. But, I still don't quite know what the point of the feats like Instant Kill or Negator is. Why do mages need what is essentially another death spell (that doesn't even count as one, in fact, so it gets around various immunities and other defenses that a spell like Phantasmal Killer or Wail Of The Banshee would face) in the form of a feat? Anyway, Negator seems a magnitute greater in power than I'd expect from a feat. Most notably the 'advancement' part, saying that it gains extra daily uses and deals more damage to boot. And as mentioned, since it isn't even a spell (let alone one with the Death descriptor, or Disintegrate in its name), it can't really be countered or protected against, nor can it be interrupted during activation. It's not even described as being magical, spell-like, supernatural, or anything. [/QUOTE]
