I did a search for this and havent really seen an answer for it.
Can an adept use critical strike with the hardliner gloves in arsenal? My view is that they are both part of unarmed combat so yes but i cna see the argument either way. There wont be any houseruling for this so i would like to stick as close to the books as possible. And before you accuse me of so i am a slight powergamer but i play w/ other powergamers and i would love for these to stack so i can get those gloves as weapon foci. |

Yeah i was afraid of that basiclly you cant focus ur chi that way/ the gloves would break hitting that hard or something like that. ill just build a sword adept then itll take less karma for me to get him where i want him then

QUOTE (Boomer1985 @ Mar 16 2012, 12:47 AM) Possess?? Throw a Possession Spirit or a Inhabiation Spirit into the item. It increases all of the items attributes/stats by its force as well as making practically indestructible and giving you access to whatever powers the spirit has like Movment or Magical Guard. -------------------- "curse you text, your inability to convey emotion has foiled my jokes for the last time......."

Ohh yeah that makes sense. Well i was gonna go straight adept and was eventually gonna sacrifice a magic point for increased reflexes bioware at least r2 and if i can get it beta ware r3 that way i only lose one point of essence and get 3 to 5 magic poi9nts of the exact same thing just a base r2 increased reflexes is cheaper than the 1.5pp adept version EDIT - Oh and i think the group as a whole doesnt like possesion type spirits. there is a slight limit on how far we will go lol |

Increase Reflexes is the way to go, since you can also cast it on other people, thus being a force multiplier. -------------------- "curse you text, your inability to convey emotion has foiled my jokes for the last time......."
