what type of bonus should the Stealth bonus on weapon properties be? Enhancement is the obvious choice, but wouldn't stack with any skill items you purchase, rendering the bonus largely useless, except for those non-stealth characters who accidentally pick a property which gives them a bonus to stealth. FWIW, I don't really mind having a couple of ways to get small bonuses above our normal bonus avenues, as long as that bonus is never higher than, say, +5 (and that is the very extreme end of things). If any of these bonuses get to (or above) +5, I'd say it should be Enhancement. Otherwise, we could consider 'Circumstance'. | what type of bonus should the Stealth bonus on weapon properties be?

good question. I was making a first skim over the props to get at least SOMETHING in most of them, just swagging numbers, and I was wondering about this very thing. i'd lean to circumstance as well. the only weapon properties that will give bonuses are the 'mild-mannered' ones like ghost touch, and I think that will give us a good knob to turn to balance out the various props. that said, the scaling is pretty open, the biggest bonus I've put in so far is +5, and that's just a complete 'try it and see'. if you want to tinker and rescale, knock it out, i'm not married to any of this quite yet. the big thing is, the 'flashy/noisy/impressive' props hit stealth HARD...which I kind of feel appropriate. :) | |||
