I really love this, as it gives more of an "ancestral power" feel to the Warlock, and I wanna see more.~ |

An interesting feat that adds a new playstyle to the warlock. Might be nice taken with this feat. |
Balance Level
I mean, it's a soulknife's mindblade so, what's making it High? Is there a combo I'm missing? Just reads Low to me. That's not a bad thing, it's just that the feat doesn't seem to me to do all that much. Surgo (talk) 16:52, 4 September 2017 (MDT)
- I would not say that getting a weapon that bypass all DRs and you cannot lose with additional benefit as low. Maybe moderate. --Leziad (talk) 19:12, 4 September 2017 (MDT)
Essence Soulsword?
I had wondered if it would be appropriate to allow the Eldritch Blast-user to apply Eldritch Essences to the blade's damage to change damage type/give extra effects? That would bring the feat closer to the High range, since at current I'd say it's a solid Moderate feat. Then again, being able to enchant it is a plus, especially when you can make a pair of Gish Gauntlets that enhance it further, as it's currently written. I dunno, I just think a Flaming Dark Spiral Eldritch Soulsword whose flames are purple/black would be really cool to have. --Zhenra-Khal (talk) 20:23, 4 September 2017 (MDT)
- I am open to suggestion and will consider it. I think applying an essence on every strike would make it VH though... hmmm that give me an idea. I will work on it a bit later tomorrow. --Leziad (talk) 20:37, 4 September 2017 (MDT)
- You could make the essence application a second feat in and of itself, yeah. --Zhenra-Khal (talk) 20:39, 4 September 2017 (MDT)
