Black Rose Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Let me preface this by saying I know that there have been changes from 5e to 6e that make this... problematic. Also that I find using Drain to penalize Characteristics and such to be clunky. I'm trying to write up a "curse"-type power build. Do any of you have a more elegant way of doing "I subtract 3 from that score right there", where "that score" might be Charm, or Stealth, or heck, all PRE rolls or even all Characteristic or skill rolls? I'm starting to lean towards Change Environment, Long-Lasting, possibly with Usable As Attack. I understand how Transform might work, but it seems like you need at least Major Transform to pull it off, and why should I have to build a 60 AP power just to say "you are slightly less stealthy until arbitrary condition occurs"? I'm sure I'm neglecting some details that will become evident once people begin offering their opinions, but this is what I have right now. Any thoughts?

IndianaJoe3 Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Change Environment, Long-Lasting is probably the way to go. It's already designed to be an attack, so you don't need to add that. Ninja-Bear, Chris Goodwin and HeroGM 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-Bear Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 I agree with Indiana Joe. If one would go with Transform, I don’t see it being Major at all for just a minor curse. If you’re dinging a a few points then minor is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grailknight Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 I'd go with Transform. Depending on the effect it could be any level from Cosmetic to Severe but will be more appropriately costed than Change Environment used on a PC/NPC. I'd use Change Environment if it will apply to anyone in a locale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Goodwin Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Change Environment is exactly what you're looking for. HeroGM and Duke Bushido 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Having looked at Change Environment, it is what you want. However, it needs to have Long Lasting added to it, as well as a limitation which is the cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
