Cave Flyer (4e Paragon Path)

Cave Flyer

“

Tunnelers see the world from below. Fliers see the world from above. Must the two be mutually exclusive?

”

You are an oddball amongst Aeroforged-- rather than enjoying the freedom of the open skies, you prefer the cold reaches of the underground. After a long time being unable to fly in caves, you have reached a conclusion of how to keep to the air while underground.

Prerequisite: Aeroforged, Flight Form Power

Cave Flyer path features

Refined Technique (11th Level): While using your Flight Form, your flight speed increases by 1, but your maximum altitude cannot increase.

Maneuverability (11th Level): While you are using Flight Form, you may use a move action to fly 2 squares, not provoking opportunity attacks for doing so.

Cavern Skirmisher (16th Level): While you are using Flight Form and are underground, you may treat dim light as cover for the purpose of making stealth checks. You also get a +2 to attack and damage rolls while underground. Additionally, your Flight Form stance doesn't end when you take thunder or lightning damage.
