Daily Punch 8-15-14 Controlled Chaos Feat for DnD Next

So I’ve written about the DnD 5th edition Player’s Handbook that I got at GenCon.  I watched one of my players absolutely LOVE the wild magic effects of a Sorceror.  How about a feat to help with the wildness of the class?

 

Controlled Chaos

You are a master of magic and have begun to see the rhythms that exist in the randomness of the art

You may take this feat multiple times and its effects stack.  Gain the following benefits:

  • Add one to the number needed for your wild magic effects to occur.
  • Roll an additional die when your wild magic effect occurs.  You may choose which die you want to use for your wild magic effect.

Daily Punch 8-11-14 Death From Above feat for Pathfinder

How about a feat for Pathfinder? Who doesn’t love playing Mario with their enemies…

Death From Above

When you strike from above, you hit with devastating results

When you jump down on an enemy from a height of equal to or greater than twice the enemy’s height, increase your critical attack range by two. You can do this effect by jumping at the opponent instead of falling, but you must succeed on a jump check that results in you at least being twice as high as your opponent.

Daily Punch 7-29-14 54 Card Pick-Up feat for Pathfinder

I’m currently reading a few of the Pathfinder Harrow books, and I think this feat will help.

 

54 Card Pick-Up

You know how to use the Harrow, either to help or harm, but when you’re done you always get your cards back.

Benefit:  When you use a Harrow deck in a way that destroys a card or cards, if you shuffle the deck for five consecutive minutes after the card is destroyed the card or cards reappear in the deck.  These new cards are unmarked, and allow you to use the Harrow Deck for all feat, powers, or class abilities that requires a full deck of cards to draw from.

  • Gain a +1 to strength or dexterity to a maximum of 20

Daily Punch 7-18-14 Discerning Drinker feat for Pathfinder

Next week I’m posting my review of the Numeria setting book for Pathfinder.  Here’s a feat I know my players want NOW!

 

 

Discerning Drinker

You’ve studied the strange fluids of Numeria, and you know which ones are good and which ones will kill you!

Benefit: Make a knowledge(arcana) roll before you drink a Numeria fluid.  If you make a DC 20 check, you may know the effects of a fluid before you drink it.  If you make a DC 25 check, you may roll twice on the Numeria Fluid check and chose the result.

Daily Punch 6-25-14 Chosen of Life feat for Pathfinder

Pathfinder would handle chosen a bit different.  How about a feat today?

 

Chosen of Life

You are chosen of a God who heals the sick and cures the fallen.  You now must act according to his or her wishes.

Benefit: A number of times per day equal to your wisdom modifier you can cast cure light wounds.  At fifth level, the becomes cure moderate wounds.  At 10th level, the spell becomes cure serious wounds.  And at 15th level, the spell becomes cure critical wounds.  The DC of the spell is determined as if you were a cleric.

Note: If you act against your patrons wishes, you lose the ability granted by this feat.  You must atone as a cleric would.
