Re: Ravens N' Pennies - GURPS Content Posts
Obscure is 2/level and Defining Display is Imbue 1 for 10 points.
As an AA that would be 5 levels of Obscure for 2 points. Abilities at Default is just a skill penalty.Lets say your looking at 3 levels of Obscure (7 damage halved as levels of Obscure) for 6 points. Thats 60% of 10 which would normally require a roll at -6 (75%). Somewhere your getting a 28% number which you round to 30%.

So Deafening Display is Obscure Hearing 1 [2] compared to the "average" cost of damage of 7. So 2/7 = 0.28... or around 30%

Re: Ravens N' Pennies - GURPS Content Posts
Ok, now I get what you meant. I pointed at this article in my latest one which I wrote because I took another stab at trying to figure Imbuements out and it sort of coalesced into a larger look at power frameworks.

Re: Ravens N' Pennies - GURPS Content Posts
Going through your archives (the "convert G:DF Necromancer to RPM" article), there was a link to a closed (or otherwise unavailable) page, and I got to thinking.
Is there some way to allow Patreons to have access to a limited number of old/closed pages per month? I get that the problem with allowing Patreons to have access to ALL old content is the likelihood of "dine and dash" (i.e., they join for a month, they copy all the pages they want, they leave the next month). But there's some GOOD stuff on there that I would like to read, and a lot of it's locked. Not even behind a paywall... I don't know if Patreon or your web provider can track all that, so don't know if it's possible. **************************** Either way, enjoyed both this article and the Diablo RPM article! :-)

Re: Ravens N' Pennies - GURPS Content Posts
Also, a suggestion for an article.
"RPM On the Go." Fast-cast rituals (the 15+ spells you can carry around for insta-cast) are set up in town, using the time and facilities available there. What about halfway through the adventure, when it's time to replace the fire-and-forget spells used? At best, there's the backpack ritual space (so a penalty on the casting), and a limited time to prepare. So what's a caster in the middle of an adventure supposed to do to get maximum bonuses on their fast-cast rituals?
