well the first question you have to ask is what is the best description of how the material works in relation to real materials. for instance wool off a sheep or hair off a dog (or mdc equivalent) would be tailoring, weaving and similar (basically turn the hair into cloth, then make clothing (armor...

What skills would be required to take something like the left over carcass of a fury beetle or some other MD creature into a suit of armor?

Has anyone created a Magical Warrior Class Archer? Or did I miss a thread where this is discussed more?

I'm aware of the T-Archer in Splynn Dimensional Market and of goblin bombs used with arrows, but I guess I was looking for more.

Though given the information provided I'm not sure the PC would have become a Psi-Druid, a Zapper (IIRC, also in Psycape) might be a better fit.

Has anyone created a psionic version of the Sorcerous fury? I have a player who wants something like this for their backstory.

@Q99: The math that @masslegion and myself posted was a response to @say652 saying that he was increasing thickness of armor plates as well to justify increased MDC.

If we look at RIFTs alone. While fencing does not specify the additional damage can be applied to either SDC or MD, I believe the horsemanship: Cyberknight does say the additional damage can be in either SDC oR MD as per the weapon in RUE.

For Power Armor, for each 20% increase in size, decrease speed by 5% so a Samas 80% larger, heavier and 80% more mdc would suffer a 20% decrease in speed running and speed flying.
