Talk:Self concealment
From NWNWiki
Spells, Items and Effects for concealment do not stack with each other or this feat. Only the highest is used. DaBear 10:11, 16 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Prerequisite is Dex of 30? Natural or modified? If natural, how is this possible? Blacknight 07:34, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
- Natural. Start with 18, add 10 from level-ups and 7 from great dexterity, and you have 35 before digging into racial bonuses and bonus feats. --The Krit 07:50, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
- Start with 18? Ouch - that will hurt the other stats. And 10 level ups must be quite a high level - trying to reach that in OC & HotU campaigns would be problematical. I know it's the players choice to take these feats or not, but I just don't understand BioWare's implementation of Epic Feats that require such narrow focus, to the exclusion of pretty well most other options. And all to get a 10% concealment bonus (which does not stack with items/spells)? Seems disproportionate. Blacknight 09:08, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
- You don't have to start with 18 — my example was intended to show that dex 30 is possible. (It gives 5 more dexterity than you need and does not utilize bonus feats.) A bard could have a 30 dex at level 30 by starting with a 16 dexterity and taking 7 dexterity ability increases, four Great Dex's as regular feats, and three Great Dex's as bonus epic feats. No, you won't normally reach level 30 in HotU, but the epic feats are designed around characters getting to level 40.
Actually, I don't think this feat should be available at the levels achieved in Hordes. This is a very potent feat. It doesn't stack with items, but you can take it five times. At that point, you have the maximum achievable concealment, and half of all attacks will miss you before the attack roll is made, even if you are caught unprepared. --The Krit 19:58, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
Does Epic Skill Focus count towards prerequisites like Hide 30? Chamalscuro 17:02, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- No. -- The Krit 04:00, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Ahh, that's too bad. Thanks for the reply! Chamalscuro 02:42, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
