Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tetsubo" data-source="post: 4603462" data-attributes="member: 1250">I have an idea for a modified Soulknife character. Instead of a Mindblade, he uses a Mindstaff. Two-handed weapon that has a single attack at 1st level. The standard Soulknife can use the Mindblade and a shield. My modification means no shield but he would get the 1.5 x damage increase for using a two-handed weapon. When he would normally be able to form two Mindblades he would simply get two attacks with his Mindstaff just as a standard staff. The weapon damage increase (bastard sword form) would also apply to the Mindstaff when not used as a double weapon. Does this sound balanced? Should he get some sort of bonus for not using a shield or is the damage multiplier enough?    I would allow the Throw Mindblade ability to remain, though probably keep it Bludgeoning and just change the fluff to an 'energy' sphere or 'stick' (think Daredevil's baton). Yes, I know that clubs have a throwing range. Most people don't think of them as throwing weapons however. Even if they were used as such in the real world.    Any thoughts?</blockquote>
