Novus RPG / Novus Final Open Beta Question Thread
« on: April 05, 2012, 06:17:35 PM »
ok I don't know if this is a typo but I am confused about the wording in a few combat moves
Page 49
trip combat maneuver
save vs speed (Tn 15 + character's Str bonus)
should this be a save vs speed adding the strength bonus after the normal bonuses to the speed save
then it would be less confusing to me to list it as save vs speed (Tn 15) + character's Str bonus
or is this a typo and the save stat and the bonus stat should be the same
The combat moves Choke hold page 51, basic throw page 51, iron palm page 52, knockout page 52, leg sweep page 52, slam page 52, stunning kick page 52, stunning strike page 52 all have this issue.
thanks

Novus RPG / Codifiy Base Damage...
« on: March 29, 2012, 05:07:32 PM »
Just last night I was thinking about adding strength to damage. I just looked the weapon skill table over and I think that
Base Damage = Damage Rating + Stat Bonus Combat Skill used in making the attack would be the best
In martial arts speed is just as important and maby more so than strength in breaking bords. Wisdom likewise for amiming the bow at just the right spot to cause maximum damage.

Appearance: Giri-Kur (plural: Giri-Kurim) are the first step Mer-Girim take in the ascension to dragon-hood All Mer-Girim become a combination of humanoid and dragon. To attain this the mer-grim must purchase the required talents. All Mer-Grim have access to one of the required talents and the talents can be purchased over as many levels as the character wishes. When all the required talents are purchased the character can become a Giri-Kur. The transformation costs the character 15CP. All Mer-Girim keep their previous racial abilities, talents, and stat bonuses but all stat penalties are negated, and the new Giri-Kur gains the talent sense magic for free. The Giri-Kur also has the racial hit point base increased to 150. The Giri-Kur can now work on the final step of ascension to dragon-hood.
Required Talents:
Tough Skin Ar5 7CP
Flight 20CP
Innate Melee Attack Base damage 7 hands free 14CP
Natural camouflage 10CP
Either Major, Minor, or Simi Adept 25, 15, or 10 CP

I think that the combat 1 and 2 talents should be treated like the armor talents. When you want to upgrade just pay the difference in price.
