longest range combat power...

Unread post by tsh77769 »

I would like a character with ranged combat powers that would be able to substitute for a rifle.

Ideas?

Or Weapon merge.
Or Alter Limb(major) and minor energy expulsion power.
Damn ICE/BCP/BorderPatrol! Damn everyone who won’t damn ICE/BCP/Border Patrol!! Damn everyone that won’t put lights in his windows and sit up all night damning CE/BCP/BorderPatrol!!!
If you support ICE/BCP/BorderPatrol at this point, you would have called the Gestapo on the people surreptitiously moving into your neighbor's attic and huffed that you were only following the law.

I think Gun Limb plus Targeting is pretty darn good. I also like that it has bonuses that can be used with regular guns and bows as well.

Oh,those two plus distort space would let you increase your range while shooting.

Would you need a super-sight power to use Distort Space at upper limits?

It says one point needs to be within 50 feet so I'm guessing probably not since if that's point 1 then say at 10th level the second point you'd need to be able to see would be 1050 feet away. I'm not sure how far people can see without enhancements.

No, because the space distortion would effect the light reflecting off the target too.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

But I thought you had to see the 2nd point first before you could distort to it. Meaning if you were trying to distort during the night without nightvision it might be hard.
