Allow Ricochet (PU4) on mundane attacks
I'm running a highly cinematic DFRPG game where I would like to offer the party's Scout character the ability to use the Ricochet enhancement from Power Ups 4: Enhancements.
This would seem to fit nicely with the Special Scout Traits, but at what cost? It's probably less powerful than Heroic Archer (at 20 points). Alternatively I could offer it as a leveled Trait -- +X points per level, where each level adds one possible ricochet on the way towards the target. Anyway, any thoughts on how much this should cost would be appreciated. |

Re: Allow Ricochet (PU4) on mundane attacks
The place to start with this is "Enhancing Existing Damage" on pp. 9-11 of Power-Ups 4. See if that gives you a reasonable cost?

Re: Allow Ricochet (PU4) on mundane attacks
A simple solution would be to use PU 1 : imbuements.
Imbue 2 (one skill only) [4] and the skill Bank shot(bow) (DX/Very Hard) -2 per bounce after the first, cost 1 fp (-5 to skill to avoid fp cost) |
