Do You Want This?
It just seems a little...well, bleh. Surgo 07:19, December 23, 2009 (UTC)


 * While I like the idea, the level pre-reqs are terrible. The cost will prevent d20s on first level games.  By the time you can afford it, 1d20, no additional damage... is pitiful, you might get a 1, and you average 10.  It IS force, and thats something o be said, but still price, not level requirements, can handle this.  I'd even go so far to argue that they should be a single EWP feat.


 * Hmm, could you TWF with these? 2d20 is slightly more respectable, but still pretty bad in the long run.  -- Eiji Hyrule 00:46, June 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * What if you scored a crit if you rolled a 20 for damage on the d20? 40 points of force damage, while not really worth a feat and and so much cash, isn't anything to cough at.  --Undead Knave 05:14, June 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * You'd have to wait til near epic levels just to take the feat to be allowed to use that, and you'd have to roll 20 (to crit) and 20 again for 40 damage. Enjoy your 1:8000 chance.  Also they're melee weapons, somehow (do you try to rub it against the enemy's face or something, maybe put it in their eye?) and not even touch attacks, but melee attacks.  To this day, this weapon bothers me to no end.  I really want to take the axe to it... pleaaaase let me take an axe to this. -- Eiji-kun 02:37, 23 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Took a chainsaw to it. It's all one feat, with "level caps" restricted by price.  It works like ammo now (after al you throw dice) and I gave it a reason to deal force damage while being mundane, though debating just bringing it down to pure "magic" damage.  The d4 is a 1 for 1 gold deal, affordable at low levels but not worth much.  Consequently the big daddy, the d20, is 20 gold a pop, which while not huge, IS more expensive for price-strapped first levelers.  By the time they can afford it on a regular basis, there's already more damaging options.  Lack of adding Str really does hurt, so the ones using this will be the rogues, sneak attacking.  Having rogues (the iconic class to USE dice) have force dice too adds one element.  They have something to do when facing incorporeal undead.  True it's not much, but it is something. -- Eiji-kun 02:52, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
