I cannot figure out why they made composure a skill. It seems to me that it is sort of redundant with concetration, as it is really just a differnt form of Concentration. So why not make it a Feat like Track where you make a con. check with oll the same DC as listed in the skill description. Then make composure a bonus feat for Aes Sadie.


I know this is another quikie post, and I am sorry but I wanted to get a feel for what you all think.


Peace

Probably 'cuz it's not something worth wasting a feat over...

Though it could have easily been a class feature utilizing the Concentration skill. *shrug*

I use the word "totally" too much. I need to change it up and use a word that is different but has the same meaning. "Mitch, do you like submarine sandwhiches?" "All-encompassingly..."

i wouldn't make it a class feature, since that means no one but channelers can learn the flame-n-void technique.

I definately think that composure should be a skill, but it just needs to be explained better than it is. I make my channeler make a composure check when embracing the source in a challenging situation, not a concentration check because no matter how much you concentrate, perse, if you are not composed, you cant embrace. So I do think that they are seperate skills that cant be combined into the same without detriment.

I changed the Opening rules a bit so that to open you need to make a Composure check, dc based on circumstances. If you succeed by over 5, you embrace the one power as a move action, and if by over 10, it only takes a free action.
