[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 8821428, member: 326"] Hey Dave buddy - thanks for the feeback! :) I was looking at 4E stat-blocks and they seem to get more information on the page in a smaller sized space. So I went with something like that so I could keep my 3 column layout. One of my editors said the same thing last night. Technically Intermediate God covers CR 29-32. His hit points fall under the CR 30 bracket, although the other stuff is a bit higher. Yeah I am not big on upping the movement needlessly (Obviously Travel portfolio and stuff like that will have it), I don't think it improves combat. Yes Legendary 30. Scores are capped at 30 but Legendary Scores let you break the rules for strength up to your Legendary Resistance number per day. In terms of raw power I have it set at +100 damage (if you want to use it that way). Technically Kratos could perform 5 crazy feats of strength (per day) throw a Tarrasque, trip Godzilla, hold up the Sky, smash a force field etc. But that doesn't take him into the Cosmic Realm of juggling Moons and so forth...I get to that later in the book. Yes I meant to add the other saves. Was just pressed for time. Probably I was thinking Barbarian + Soldier Background and they were both the same Skill. Shorter word, helps me cram more in. Gods are immune to nature and natural threats. I didn't see why Kratos would be specifically resistant to any form of Magic Energy - in fact he may be weak to magic (since that is the War Portfolio 'curse') Well, he does have a few Barbarian senses I didn't mention. Could free up a line. Good idea. 2 Attacks from Barbarian +1 God of War (War Portfolio) +1 Frenzy (Bonus Action) +1 or 2 more from Legendary Actions I may remove that line in case it causes confusion, yes its only 5d6 for the Blades of Chaos. 1d6+3 (normal damage) plus 1d6 fire damage 5d6+3 plus 5d6 fire for Kratos (due to x5 for Intermediate Deity Template Okay. It would be +100 to hit and damage on a single attack if he expends a use of Legendary Strength. This is the complication of him having 3 modes of attack (Axe, Blades and Unarmed Attacks) He gets 3 attacks with the axe BUT the blades of Chaos are dual weapons as are technically his fists, hence that extra attack. Noted. Legendary Action cost 2 is 100% value of a standard weapon attack (as I rate them) which itself should average close to 25% of the listed DPR for CR 32 (375) or 93 per hit. I may need to tweak the Legendary Action cost for the elemental attacks. Leviathan Axe 2-handed strike is 5d10+13 plus 5d10 cold so 68, 88 while raging. I probably should have the Elemental Attack as a Cost 4 Legendary Action, not cost 3. Thanks for the lengthy feedback buddy. Very helpful. [/QUOTE]
