Just finished reading this one out loud. Only took 17 minutes to do so. So, here's what I've got to say about this: No one will ever or should ever use this. It's a mess. Did you want to track a list of up to 200 times for using an ability to know when you've completed a ritual task? You probably didn't, but you'll have to. Did you want to track abilities with all different cool-down rates and durations? Of course not, but again, you'll have to. Did you want to give your allies DR 30/— at 10th level? Well, you may have wanted that but that's crazy stupid broken and not even the only benefit of the ability. Did you want to deal five times the normal damage to constructs, completely negating any fun cool things that fighting a golem might be and just have your sword do it for you? Well, maybe not, since that takes away from the enjoyment of the rest of the party. Sigh. If one character in the party has this, it's because the DM is playing favorites and everyone else has to just deal with that, which is bad. This whole thing is an unbalanced, clunky mess. Sandbox this. It pains me to have to use the word fanwank, but this is fanwank.

	Wish at will? +20 something dodge bonus to AC? Barely follow the guideline for a legacy weapon, but somehow isn't. Yep, worth an oppose. Also you are missing the ability to kill Gods.

That looks like a pretty regular 10-foot cone to me. --Sulacu (talk) 11:14, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

It's intended to be double the wielder's melee reach. So it'd be a 20-foot cone for a Large creature. --Luigifan18 (talk) 13:26, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
