My group mage has always admired Gecko Crawl, finally got it, and used it, and then I about fell off my chair.
The description says "Magic Attribute x Success in meters per turn" along vertical or walls, this to me seems really broken. The mage had Magic 7 and 6 successes, that's 42 movement!! Why couldn't you apply that to a regular surface is the logical question? Seems lot a big boost to movement points for minimal drain IMO. Any comments, experience or rulings out there Dumpshockers? |
