sure it would... think about it if you are totally
focused on the combat not only are you seeing where the enemy may attack
you next but, by the same focus you are able to see where the enemy is
leaving themselves most open, a little too much weight on that foot...
leaning back just a little more than necessary for *that* swordform...
etc... re-read rands fight with highlord turoc in The Great Hunt... he didnt start attacking effectively or defending at his best (though he was defending somewhat well, not at the level of a blademaster) until he used the flame and the void which he was avoiding because he knew it was how he embraced the One Power. |

hrm... maybe two seperate feats then, with Composure
as a prereq? Though I'd also say that the ranged one needs at the least
Precise Shot. So that means it requires three feats. Not too much a
problem, considering the power. What should the melee version do then? +3 on attack and defense? Wis bonus on attack and defense? what? -------------------- Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand this rant's
done. Magus the Extreme. Your wonderfully-ghoulish GM of Patterns of the Weave. Be fearful, indeed. |

my challenge with a feat that gives a bonus for a
combat based character eg. armsman/woodsman that is based on an attribute
they would definitely not put points in to is that the feat is fairly
useless unless they get really good rolls to start right? so if they have to put points in to wisdom to make the feat worthwhile it should have a starting wis 13+ as its primary req... some options i've considered are half your level as a bonus to attack... or stack str/dex? i dont know... possibly make it another feat tree... based on wisdom... first step +wis. modifer to attack second step +wis modifier to dmg third step maybe...+wis mod to def? fourth step x2 crit range? these are just brainstorm ideas... i guess if i was going to get my wis mod to a number of areas not just one it could make putting the extra points there worth it... but realistically why not just keep putting points in to str or dex depending on which sort of sword you r using? whats the dif between starting with 15 str and 11 wis and upping str to 20 over time or putting str at 18 and wis at 13? same total modifier to atk and dmg right? |

Magus, I think that giving the Wisdom bonus to attack
would be a sufficient bonus from Flame and Void. Don't give any bonus to
Defense. If the Blademaster wishes to increase his defense through the
Flame and the Void then he has Combat Expertise with which he can
accomplish that (shifting his style from offensive to defensive but using
the same focus). You could even make Combat Expertise a requirement for
the Flame and the Void. -------------------- Not all that is gold, glitters. Not all who wonder
