[QUOTE="OnlineDM, post: 5746112, member: 90804"] I like the flavor a lot! A few suggestions: For flavor, have the Coiled Tiger Spring allow Farina to jump 12 squares horizontally, going no higher than 1 square off the ground. This is more flavorful to me, and it would also let her get over difficult terrain and, if she's willing to take some opportunity attacks, leap over enemies. Pain Can't Slow Me is good, but Farina can still be stunned or dominated, correct? Maybe that's not a problem with your particular party, but it's a problem for lots of parties with high-level solos. I'd rephrase it to say that she shakes off one condition of her choice, in which case it would have to be a once-per-round No Action rather than a minor (which wouldn't really matter since she doesn't have any other minors that she would use during battle). Check out the solos from the Monster Vault to see how this sort of thing is being handled lately in solos. Farina needs a way to get out of a stun lock. Since Farina is epic level, I think her regeneration should be 15 rather than 10 (5 per tier). With Dancing Through the Melee, is there any intended requirement that Farina spread these attacks out, or can she just stand there and beat the crap out of one PC? I'm assuming the latter, but based on the name of the power I wasn't sure. I'd suggest giving Farina some kind of nasty minor action. You could consider making her Tiger Snarl a minor, for instance. Edit: I thought this was a recharge rather than an at-will. Too nasty for an at-will, I think. I'd also suggest something cool happening when she becomes bloodied. Have her transform into full-on tiger form, shake off all conditions, get a bonus to damage until the end of the encounter, and immediately recharge and use Dancing Through the Melee, perhaps. Please don't take these suggestions as criticism; I really like the flavor of Farina and thing she has a lot of potential to be very cool and very scary. Edit: I just realized that Farina was an elite, not a solo. My comments were written with a solo in mind. So, you can ignore most of them! She doesn't need to be pumped up as much if she's not a solo. But given her description as the BBEG, I'd suggest you consider making her a solo. [/QUOTE]
