Talk:I Have a Punning Clan (3.5e Feat)

I'm always a fan of a good pun. Also, feels balanced. --Havvy 05:58, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

This is an extreme example, but this could get out of hand in combination with Leadership-style feats, even (and particularly) the adjusted ones that only grant followers. Suddenly you have over a dozen allies giving cumulative penalties to an opponent, which since it doesn't say otherwise I can only presume can go to negatives. That last bit was intended to be sarcastic, but I think that explains it about right. You could probably fix it by imposing a CR minimum on the allies to make their taunt effective. The BBEG shouldn't be worrying about the taunts of a mook who he can kill with almost no effort. - TG Cid 17:17, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

I think that's a misread Cid. Each additional guy contributing looks like they provide an additional -1 on a different roll, and it doesn't appear that you can stack them at all. So you could load someone up with a few hundred -1s, but they would each apply to a different roll and any unused at the end of the round are simply wasted. So you could give a guy -1 to all of his rolls with a sufficiently large retinue, but that's not all that big of a deal. - Tarkisflux ^Talk 17:30, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Should I make that clearer, prehaps with a mass combat example?--Change=Chaos. Period. SC 22:49, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Examples never hurt... --Havvy 23:27, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Feels weak even for fighter level. I'd make it a -2 penalty. Or make the feat monk level. Spending a swift action for -1 per enemy attack from a single enemy just feels worthless. Heck, dodge gives +1 AC against all the attacks from a single target and dodge is probably monk level. --Aarnott 18:50, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
