What is an "Essence Node of Blinding"?

[shadowlight]

In an Eberron adventure, my group just came across an "Essence Node of Blinding." Does anyone know what this is and where we can find a description?

Thanks!

You should check the errata file for that adventure. I'm pretty sure they changed the item to another one.

The essence nodes are described in the Eberron CS, but I don't have it handy right now.

I vaguely remember that in the Big Ask Keith Baker thread over at the WOTC boards, he said it was an essence node (basically, amulet-slot item that can only be used by warforged) that imparted the Blinding property to a warforged's built-in armor (despite it normally being a shield-only ability).

I also vaguely recall that the errata for the adventure changes it to a different item.

Yes, the Errata changed that to an Essence Node of Sneaking (or Scout or somesuch). It grants +5 to Hide and Move Silently, takes up the amulet slot and can only be worn by a warforged.

 

[shadowlight]

Yep. I just checked it and it's supposed to be Essence of the Scout.

Thanks Everybody!

 

[Quickbeam]

Yeah for Wrath, eh Shadowlight?

 

[shadowlight]

Yeah, you'll need that +4 to help out with all that noisy adamantine armor

I decided to change it to something more interesting when I couldnt find it anywhere.

I havent fully figured it out yet, but so far when they have tried to pawn it off...no one has wanted it, but they readily ID it as a "Node of Essence" just no one is spilling what it does.

I like to keep my PCs guessing for awhile. 1/2 the fun is the "off-the-cuff" stuff anyway
