[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 8669983, member: 87792"] The Pact of the Talisman is a whole lot less proactive in expanding your abilities than either the Tome or the Chain and expands your capabilities a whole lot less. Even rebuke of the talisman is pretty meh as the enemy needs to have already hit you, defanging booming blade/push combinations. But there is one style of play in which the Pact of the Talisman is [I]awesome[/I]. And that's in a game where you have complicated in-party interactions and where deciding who to lend your talisman to is important to you. (Also better that foes hit your allies than you, and triggering the rebuke adds up the damage if you've given it to the barbarian...) It's a worthy addition to the lineup partly because it's not the most interesting choice. (It IMO beats blade hollow however). [/QUOTE]
