(n00b) Help with Detect Power
* Did google, faq, and forum search *
I'd like to build a "Detect Magic and Psionics" sense power for a class of characters. I'm kind of stumped using the Size & Speed/Range table for Sense Roll modifiers. This is how it should work: * The power allows a character to "sniff out" magic Items, people who can cast spells, & people who can use Psi powers at a base range of 50ft. * The power allows a character to detect active magic and psionic events; spell casting, psionic power use, active magic items, at a base range of 400ft. My basic questions: 1, Does the S&S/R table apply directly to sense rolls? (it seems a little short ranged for vision rolls; 50% chance to notice a person standing 2 yards away?) 2, are these powers modeled better by Increased Range modifiers or Acute Senses? 3, How is the effect of Increased Range (sense) 5x (+20%), different than 4 Levels of Accute Sense [8] ? What I've got so far: Detect Magery >0 (occasional) [12]; (Increased Range 5x +20%) Detect Active Magic Use/Effect (rare) [8]; (Increased Range 50x +50%) Detect Psychic Talent (occasional) [12]; (Increased Range 5x +20%) Detect Active Psychic Use/Effect (rare) [8]; (Increased Range 50x +50%) Thanks for your consideration Last edited by onetrikpony; 11-23-2018 at 10:39 AM.
