[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 4674722, member: 20323"] Great idea Garthanos! I could see this divided into 3 rites by tier, maybe the heroic one is just a penalty (equal to proficiency bonus with the weapon) to enemies using it against you, paragon prevents enemy from using powers with weapon keyword with weapon against you, and epic take ongoing damage for each round they wield it? I've just finished my rough draft of a 3 rites, what do you think?
