Greetings,

Corrupt Compromise can affect up to Step different traits, each with a maximum of Step bonus. Each use of the power gives +1. Step 8 means up to 8 things can get a +8 bonus, which requires the marked character to acquiesce 64 times.

Greetings,

Current damage doesn't change and use the adept's health ratings. The idea changing form heals is a D&Dism.

Greetings, No, that isn't an appropriate use of Disguise Self which is limited to appearing as another Namegiver. Nor is it particularly appropriate for a knack to match the surroundings—this is pretty far from the purpose of the talent. A knack to blend into a crowd (similar to Bland Stride) may be...

Greeting,

1) Correct, it should be Rank 6.

2) It's incorrect (Temper Self is from previous editions, 20 years of old habits die hard), but should be "Temper Flesh".

The errata is updated.

Best regards,

Morgan

No, called shots can never be used to increase damage, bypass armor, etc., unless specifically noted.

Technically there aren't any rules for using ship weapons, so that comparison is something of a non-sequitur and nothing to do with hindsight. Putting mechanics in for using things that don't quite exist yet is putting the cart in front of the horse and not a great plan because the foresight on that...

Greetings, Below are the reasons why the various ranged combat talents were given to the particulare Disciplines: Air Sailor: While engagements may start at range, Air Sailors use their ship weaponry rather than individual missile weapons. The usefulness of missile weapons is probably limited to sha...

You are correct, Brother of Stone and Outcast do not specifically call it out a racial restriction. To describe Brother of Stone having "hints" of a restriction is putting it too lightly; it may not be called out but I can't imagine how a non-obsidiman would ever complete it. That being said, if a n...

Greetings, For 4E (whcih I assume the original poster is using since Paths are referenced), Sharkforce is correct on all accounts. Your Karma Ritual is your Karma Ritual and does not need to follow the examples, just as the Karma Rituals listed for a Path are examples of how the adept may alter thei...
