Punishing Eye (Artificer 1)

[1of3]

Hi.

I got a question about the Artificer's Punishing Eye power. It says that enemies do not benefit from concealment.

Now I wonder, do they still benefit from total concealment or not?

If it was ALSO total concealment it would say so.
And be too powerful.
Its pretty badass as it is i just levelled up in my hime campaign and switched to this.
More players/attacks =- overpowered

Indeed.

On the other hand all other powers (as far as I remember at least) say something like "ignore concealment but not total concealment" when only standard concealment is negated.

Yeah... they are inconsistant. They really need a style guide, and someone to force them to stick to it.

It is a style change that WOTC has gone through but is now standard (pretty much ever since PHB 2). Instead of listing the conditions of a power as well as noting that similar conditions dont apply it just states the conditions that apply.
