[QUOTE="Unwise, post: 5965459, member: 98008"] Powerwise it seems interesting to me and I think it could end up having some good tactical elements in the encounter. That curse seems to be an oddly designed power. If I understand correctly, the PCs would be best off not resisting the damage+stun. That way they would all be cursed and the curse would have no effect as there is no non-cursed target to attack. Sure in practice, somebody will resist and somebody will make a saving throw, it just seems odd that they would be better off not doing so. Do you have rules in your campaign for purposely not ending a save-ends effect or purposely not resisting an attack? The effect this would have on combat is kind of the opposite of what you would think of on a curse. The un-cursed person is the one that you want to protect, hide and guard. You would much prefer your tank to be cursed than not. [/QUOTE]
