Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
I've never seen that class before, but it looks so cool. It may lose three caster levels, but that's not too big a deal for warlocks (especially with the ruling that practiced spellcaster boosts blast damage). But man, these are some nice class features. With Naberius, that's infinite charges on all staffs as early as level 12. Christ.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
"Infused Shot (Su): The ballisteer's ammo becomes infused with psionic energy as it is used in a ranged attack. His ranged attacks now do additional energy damage equal to that of the ammo used. For example, a thrown dagger now does 1d4 points of damage + 1d4 points of psionic energy damage + any other bonuses. Infused shots can be enhanced with energy shot or explosive shot."
Somebody's going to just straight ignore the entire rest of the class and bring in a Ballisteer + Hulking Hurler to try to optimize this.
(Not even that hard to make it 3.5 compatible, just.. completely disregard any reference to 'psionic attack and defense modes' and update Psionic Sidestep to 'must maintain Psionic Focus', assuming that wasn't already done in some other material somewhere.)Last edited by tyckspoon; 2019-07-19 at 03:49 PM.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
No, I’m not saying that. You’re saying that. I don’t know why you’re saying that. Why are you saying that?
Y’know what. You didn’t even say that before.
Someone else, on the first page of this thread, mentioned the following:
Did you question the legality of Oriental Adventures then?
Oriental Adventures is literally 3.0 legal which is why it had an update to bring some of it into 3.5.
The book I cited was literally grandfathered into 3.5 because it is 3.0 material.
— except they’re not the same entry and not the same content and that was pointed out in the initial post.

So what page of OA is that Naga found in? When I looked in mine all I saw were the Shinomen Nagas.

a typical Dark Wizard hunter would die, on average, eight and a half times along the way to becoming ‘paranoid’.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
I had initially thought that, but the way they set them up is misleading. For reasons I cannot fathom they label the feat as "Wild Talent ([house])" but the benefit instead of the normal 2 pp is that the Talaire gains 1 pp and a psi-like-ability once per day (psionic minor creation, burst, psionic charm, control object, precognition, or vigor, depending on house). To the best of my knowledge this is not an ability you can mimic with a feat.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
Huh. Weird. But looking at House Adon (the one freely available online for some reason) backs up your point. For some reason my brain just went "oh they must have meant Hidden Talent" and then skipped over the once-per-day line. Which also makes them weaker than a human who took Hidden Talent, weirdly.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
Hidden Talent gives you a power off the psion/wilder list. Talaires get discipline powers. None of the houses' signature powers is available through Hidden Talent IIRC.
Oriental Adventures is a D&D sourcebook published by Wizards of the Coast. It was published during the 3.0 era and later updated to D&D 3.5 in Dragon 318. Rokugan Campaign Setting is a d20 Rokugan sourcebook published by AEG. Totally different book. Since it uses the d20 system, it's compatible with D&D, which puts it in the same league as d20 Modern, d20 Star Wars, and Ponyfinder.Rhymes with "Protracted."

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
Conductivity. I really want to like this feat, it seems very cool, but I think unless you made multiple characters in mind for one to have it, it'd never get used. When hit by an electrical attack, you can shoot an arc of lightning for half the damage you just took at any target within 30 feet. I can see a couple ways a party could use it, or maybe some hijinks if you get it on an advanced shocker lizard familiar, depending on how you interpret the feat's damage to work with a electrical-immune creature. But most of the time, it just won't be useful.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
@Meditation Can I get a page quote for Oriental Adventures where a PC Naga race appears that isn't one of the five Shinomen Naga monsters on pg 172? I can't seem to find it.
EDIT: It's entirely possible you've already mentioned a page quote at some point in the argument, so my apologies if this is just asking you to repeat yourself.Last edited by AvatarVecna; 2019-07-21 at 06:41 AM.

Re: [3.5] Favorite Obscure Prc, Feat, Spell etc.
Oriental Adventures was a port of the Rokugan setting to D&D. It is an official D&D supplement, and is also perfectly validly described by the phrase "L5R d20". I was unaware of the existence of a separate L5R d20 system, and it wouldn't surprise me if Meditation was too. But they were only ever referring to Oriental Adventures, that being the only book on the Rokugan setting that is WotC-published and thus first party D&D 3.5.
EDIT: I stand corrected.
You're all right, Meditation did indeed refer to the Rokugan Campaign Setting, which is a different book to Oriental Adventures and is not first party. Any naga described in that book are therefore not official first party content, and the stats in Oriental Adventures, later updated in Dragon, are the only official ones.
The naga Meditation is referring to are found on page 26 of the Rokugan Campaign Setting, and the three variants that don't have LA are really really good. They absolutely should have LA+1. The one that has LA+1 is worth it, the one that has LA+2 probably isn't, but would be a very good LA+1.Last edited by Heliomance; 2019-07-22 at 06:44 AM.
