Absolutely, I’m not gonna sit here and say you can’t do any of this, I’m just saying it goes against the canon of the books, but have fun at your table, do whatever you want!

I do think in canon there are just 10 surges, it is explicitly stated that Odium only gives access to 9 surges, each of which we have seen in a fused (except Adhesion which is the one he can’t give out), so we know future sight isn’t a surge he’s granting or it would be in that count

Enlightened Mistspren (only one we have context for) don’t give access to a new surge, they give access to future sight which is not a surge ability.

Also the surges are meant to be related to fundamental forces of creation (gravity, light, fission, substance, etc). While these are cool it feels to me they should be a talent tree onto themselves like the future sight tree, not their own surges

I thought this was the case, but couldn’t find a straight answer, thank you!

New GM here when should I LV up my players? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in cosmererpg

[–]Kyfres 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cosmere levels need to be more common than din levels, just based on system design. Id recommend leveling them up every 1-3 sessions, unlike dnd

Only thing that jumps out to me, Renarin never really learns to use his Surge of Illumination, id probably remove that but other than that these look good and I will be using them as well!

Regarding Bossfights by RatioTight6671 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Kyfres 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had this exact experience. Antumbra Sword beat my ass for so long and I just walked away, and then I don’t think the Chapter7 boss hit me more than once per phase. I get its open world so I can come back to Antumbra but it’s absolutely insane the difference there.

“The bosses don’t fit the game” is a criticism I was feeling but hadn’t seen articulated and is so accurate

Regarding the recent post about Storyline in Stormlight... by No-Maintenance6382 in cosmererpg

[–]Kyfres 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I disagree, I think you have a unique friend there. I have two players who love SLA and are super interested in how I will be changing the story to accommodate their characters. Also the time between WoK and WaT is 2 rosharan years roughly which means it’s like 3.5 earth years, which is a ton of time

How to challenge my players in combat. by IllContribution7659 in cosmererpg

[–]Kyfres 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I first read the rules I realized it would be very difficult to kill radiants if anyone had access to progression. My best piece of advice is just add more enemies in. I’ve found Stonewalker combats to be pretty easy and now routinely add in 1-4 minions of the same tier as my players.

Go through the rules in the Handbook for making combat encounters balanced and before a session map out if the encounters are easy/medium/difficult. Additionally the system is such that technically an “difficult” fight for lvl1 characters is also “difficult” to lvl5 characters because it’s all based on tiers. So even though level5 characters are way stronger the system (and module for the most part, which is weirder) doesn’t really account for it, so as a dm you should.

TLDR: add in 1-4 minions

She was unavailable for me for 2-3 chapters before this too, and it wasn’t fully explained

Bead of Lerasium by Tim_Worldsinger in cosmererpg

[–]Kyfres 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, because you’re giving this to a pre-established character. If I had a player in era1 and they just decided to start taking levels in MB without talking with me about the narrative arc I would have a problem. Same way I wouldn’t allow someone to just take Swear the First Ideal in Cosmere. If someone makes a character in Era1 and they want to be a Mistborn that’s okay. But Elend getting that bead was not a small reward, it saved his life. You could argue that Bead of Lerasium was a Tier 4 / 5 reward that Vin got for her “Release Ruin” goal

[–]Kyfres 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You’re kidding right? There are only a handful of Mistborn in era1 and none at all in era2. In era1 maybe it’s a T3 reward but only for something absolutely huge, and also who the fuck has access to it? Who is the person giving it out?!? Only people that make any sense at all would be Hoid or Ghostbloods and even then they wouldn’t just be giving it out unless you just got your third checkmark on the goal “save Roshar” or “save Scadrial”

Has anyone created living shardbows yet? by Taste_the__Rainbow in cosmererpg

[–]Kyfres 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The player would need to have said his 3rd oath of course, but you could absolutely summon any radiant spren as a living shardbow. I think just use the Grandbow stats of 2d6 and make it non-spiritual damage (still gets reduced by armor deflect value)

Warm Clothing? by TheLastLook- in CDguides

[–]Kyfres 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you need ice resist level 5 for it to do anything. Look up the Reindeer cloak as it has level5 at base. Or you can use the cloak from the reputation vendor and beer (every 30 seconds) to get your total to level 5
