[QUOTE="Quip, post: 1111838, member: 3816"] I'm glad you all like it :) I was kind afraid that the daze effect was a bit too strong, I just wanted it to always be a viable action to take in combat. That, and I was more working down from 2d4 rounds of stunning than working up from a cantrip. No big deal though, I can just remove the HD increase. The daze spell has a HD limit though, is the lack of that going to be a problem? I'd say the fact that its a gaze attack weakens it a bit and balances it out, and at least keeps it viable at mid levels. Good one to use on NPCs though. I tried to make a weaker version of blinding beauty called distracting beauty, it caused -1 to attack rolls within 30 ft. I thought that was a too much, so I dropped it. Maybe if it gave a penalty to listen and spot checks instead? Sort of like a bardic facination effect. A bonus to a spellcasting stat is so good that it requires two penalties to balance, just like how a strength bonus requires extra compensation. Granted, Str and Con are big hits, and Cha a litttle less strong since their favored class doesn't use it much, but thats just a good excuse to give them more special stuff. :) I wouldn't give them any skill bonuses, since full nymphs dont get them either.
