Talk:Primal Farblade (4e Power)
From D&D Wiki
Since this is an implement attack, it is OK for it to target a NAD rather than AC. How about Reflex instead? Marasmusine (talk) 14:49, 23 January 2013 (MST)
- No, this is against AC because, according to the power, "You create a blade of force"; it acts like a weapon. Still, thanks for the advice. PokeLinkEs (talk) 07:48, 24 January 2013 (MST)
- A creature's AC is usually a couple of points higher than their other defenses, which is counteracted by a weapon's proficiency bonus. Since this is an implement power, there is no proficiency bonus, so it's going to miss more often than all other powers. There is also precedent for magical blades to target NADS rather than AC (swordmage for one). 213.177.234.29 10:25, 24 January 2013 (MST)
- Hmm, good point. I'll change it. Thanks! PokeLinkEs (talk) 03:17, 25 January 2013 (MST)
