Black Guard Cause Serious Wounds

Post by Sindaglin » Sun Sep 09, 2018 7:41 pm

I am inquiring since I play a BG I just became 6th level and I tried the CSW on a character and it only did 15 points of damage ? Is this a randomly rolled damage output or is this what I should expect everytime ??

It's the same as the spell by the same name:

Which is 3d8 +1 per level

They're both very bad and in dire need of looking at, like all the non-Bulls spell likes, and at the very very least could be made a cooldown like the assassin toys. Would love to see something with the BG spells like the assn ones, where you get extra effects in epic, and them all set to a cooldown.

That's a good idea. I'd actually say the inflict wounds and contagion abilities could even be once a round, no cooldown. They don't do that much damage and it could possibly open up a more witchy blackguard kind of play.

I agree it needs alittle pop to it . I understand the spell and its parameters but for a prestige class and basically an Ant -Paladin for all intensive purposes I would really like to see some tweaking .
