Earth Genasi ability

just a question

Joran wrote:- Earth Genasi ability overhauled. At Level 10, Barkskin increases to Stoneskin + 3 AC natural. At Level 20, Greater Stoneskin + 5 AC natural. At level 30, you get 30/+10 DR and 7 natural AC. At level 40, you get 40/+20 DR and 9 natural AC.

1. is it still cast as a lvl 5 druid, meaning the duration and dispellablity of it is still fixed at 5 caster lvls?

All of the racial abilities should scale with level in regards to caster level.

heh... wow... earth gensai are really nice now. kinda hard to believe..

say... hows about letting earth gensai into rk

... lol jk, i know, itll never happen

on the banishment issue, didn't it already? I dont know; never seen it used. Ive never seen it has a major weakness as most people wouldn't have it prepped and if they did probably wouldn't know you were an outsider. Of course there should absolutely be a save on it if it does work.

That actually sounds like an excellent idea. I know they're humans "infused with the heritage of elemental earth", but they tend to resemble Dwarves and Gnomes (at least in WotC artwork).

I'm positive that the Ragnar's Kin Ambassador would do everything in his power to recruit Earth Genasi coming through the Planar Rift. Who's more qualified to locate that huge vein of Mithril ore than Earth Genasi? Just imagine the productivity increase in the Dwarven Mines!

WOW!

I just tried this out on my 31st level fighter/WM. Works GREAT. Thanks for the free upgrde.

I'd pretty much given up on using the abilty since it was only barkskin before.

The one downside to earth genasi in RK: like the gnomes there, they can't take the faction PrC. Not that I'm saying it's a bad idea, it's just that most of the people who are going to want to make a genasi build there will likely be members of guilds or people who like the faction. Casual players who like to experiment with builds from different factions probably won't bother with it.

ya see! its even got built in limit to cheeziness. Imagine that earth genasi dr stacking with 30 lvls of DD. Now that would be a lot of DR.
