[QUOTE="Florin, post: 37338, member: 1189"] I think allowing channelers to embrace with a move-equivilant or free action gets to be a bit much when they have access to weaves like Arms of Air. They could easily end a combat before it began if they won initiative. Besides, even in Star Wars, where you can choose to use Force Powers faster than usual with the right feats, they still charged you extra vp to do it. Therefore, I think introducing something like the Quicken Spell feat would be a little more appropriate. Sure, you can fire that spell off right after you Embrace the Source, but it's going to cost you a slot 4 levels higher than normal. That would allow someone like a Forsaken, who should have plenty of high-level slots to burn, to act before someone else, even if they manage to win initiative. Another idea would be to add a feat that would give you a bonus to your initiative if you are Embracing the Source, but that might be a mess to bookkeep. I'd rather stick with the Quicken Weave feat. :) [/QUOTE]
