A Palladins P.P.E. total

Hi All
Just a thought, the Palladins Demon Death Blow power costs 3D6 per use, doesn't that limit the Palladin to two maybe three such attacks at most. Shouldn't the Palladin get some sort of P.P.E. increase per level. Maybe something like the Warrior Monks 1D4 per level. just my thoughts on the matter.

My take on it:

Palladins have higher-than-normal PPE because a major part of their early training is meditation and prayer. However, in their later training, those things fall by the wayside for the exigencies of combat training. As such, they have a high initial PPE, but don't automatically gain any. I do, however, provide a skill that gives those who study is a one-time PPE boost.

I thought that no matter who you are, you always gain some PPE as you level. Where might I have heard this from?

No idea, because it's not true.

No, only mages and their ilk get increases per level in PPE. Though I do like the thought of the Palladin getting a minor increase. Not necessarily every level, but perhaps a set amount every few levels. I also like Nexx's idea of a skill that provides a one time PPE boost. Mind sharing that one, Mark? (Or do we have to wait for the book... again)

It's a book thing.

It's not that complex of an idea, NR. You just say that, say, one OCC related skill is worth 10 PPE or something, and make Secondary skills worth half of that. Give it a name and go.

Ladies and gentlemen, I think we've just seen a sneak peek at Mysteries of Magic! ;) Thanks Mark, I'll look into that. You're right, it's a pretty simple idea.
