The beauty of this is the fact that you don't need Int at all Walking Dad. Heck, throw in human w/ melee training and Con is your stat for most anything.
...

I would keep (some) Int for the rider effects.

If you pick powers that don't use Int, you aren't losing anything. Instead grab some dex for the defense and initiative.

How does Astral Seal interact with;

1. healers lore class feature

2. healers brooch implement

3. pacifist healer feat

and any other things that may or may not do something.

 

[renau1g]

Yes. Yes & No.

Healer's Lore affects it - healing power
Same for the brooch

Pacifist healer is no because it requires you to allow the target to use a healing surge, but Astral Seal doesn't do that.

1) Healer's Lore adds to healing of Astral Seal (cleric healing power that grants hit points).

2) Healer's Brooch adds to healing of Astral Seal (power which allows caster or allies to add healing points).

3) Pacifist Healer does not add to healing of Astral Seal (no healing surge used).

 

[CaBaNa]

Thanks!

 

[Velmont]

Havn't you see enough River to know that

 

[CaBaNa]

Yeah, but I wanted to be explicit

New Errata is out. http://wizards.com/dnd/files/UpdateMar2010.pdf

Strength based clerics just got hit so don't feel bad Healics - Righteous Brand is now only +3 rather than Str Mod bonus to hit.

Blood Pulse has been hit.

Orb of Imposition has been updated (AWESOME!)

Lasting Frost also

Salve's of Power are less abusive (encounter powers vs. Dailies)

Implement/Weapon Expertise are now Feat Bonuses (not that it really affects us here)

Small hit to Pacifist Healer:

In the last sentence of the feat, replace “whenever you deal damage to a bloodied enemy” with “whenever you hit or miss a bloodied enemy and deal damage to it.” The previous text included ongoing damage and other damaging effects. This correction clarifies the intent.

Hide Armor Expertise also has been nerfed big time! Replace the feat’s Benefit entry with the following text: “While wearing hide armor, you can
gain a +2 bonus to AC instead of using your Dexterity or Intelligence modifier to determine your AC.”

Student of Caiphon abuse has been corrected, now only applies to that classes powers

Winged Horde had been updated as has Frost of Letherna (both Dragon 381 spells)


I think that's the major ones. Please ensure that your PC's are properly updated.

I knew this was just a matter of time the very first time I read the power. Adding an ability mod to the "to hit" roll is problematic on a D20 system when the mod can get as high as +10.

Two high level Str Clerics with Righteous Brand could have played badminton with an NPC.

Btw, +3 to hit is still too high. The max on a to hit should always be +2 in a D20 system.
