Personally, I'd go for the Power Investiture unless the party is having a real issue dragging Ike along.<br /><br />So, I think Peter's most popular blog post is the key. Has not having general skills been an issue *in play*? If yes, then they need boosting. If not, min-max to get the spells (I assume he has PI 4 since he has IQ 13 and 15+ in all spells).Charles Saegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00368131505593336249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-31301186848222710662018-06-25T10:58:45.771-04:002018-06-25T10:58:45.771-04:00Sure, but then you'll get something that we sp...Sure, but then you'll get something that we specifically wanted to avoid with them - munchkined one-dimensional min-maxed allies. You won't get much more than X points spent to get X * Y points worth of maximum value to the players. If they want to have that, they can make a new PC that does that, instead. If you want another person to bring along, well, the GM specifically has say. And I like it that way.Peter Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246000382321978462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-49771119423598289232018-06-25T09:28:55.484-04:002018-06-25T09:28:55.484-04:00If they want an ally, they deal with it has been m...If they want an ally, they deal with it has been my solution<br /><br />Kalzazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17177712062675414026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-28984027714877191812018-06-23T00:16:40.121-04:002018-06-23T00:16:40.121-04:00As a GM this is where I'd usually ask myself, ...As a GM this is where I'd usually ask myself, "What does Ike want or need?"<br /><br />For instance, what would Ike see as his biggest area of 'failure'? Is it his focus on healing first, so he needs to diversify? Is it his lack of raw power? Have his lackluster Climbing skills held the group back? Etc.<br /><br />And then I go from there. Does Ike have any Disads that pull him in particular directions?evileeyorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08296632217198088455noreply@blogger.com
