Repose domain question
« on: October 02, 2017, 03:53:05 AM »
Hi,

description of Repose domain says: "Domain Special Abilities; Final Rest: If the cleric has twice as many levels as the undead have Hit Die, the undead are instantly destroyed".
Excatly the same description is true for vanilla Turn undead feat. (http://nwn.wikia.com/wiki/Turn_undead)

Is there mistake in description, what does "Final Rest" ability do?

The vanilla turn undead is changed on potm. More info here:http://www.nwnravenloft.com/forum/index.phptopic=41488.msg524156#msg524156  as someone asks the same question

Just to check how it works I've rolled cleric build on Open Test server and get a feeling that repose domain should be improved.
My lvl 20 cleric with buffed charisma (18 cha; +4 modifier) wasn't even able to instantly destroy three huecuvas in ML crypt.

Are there any changes in Repose domain planned in Hak Update?

not to my knowledge. But if there is a bug it can (hopefully) also be fixed without needing a hak update. Also if you make a bug report about it now it might actualy make it into the update

Undead in Ravenloft have universal Turn Resistance. iirc, a Huecuva is an HD8 monster, and with Turn Resistance, HD12 - meaning it cannot be destroyed by any PC Cleric.

As Pav said, undead in Ravenloft get extra turn resistance. Normally, without Repose, a cleric can’t destroy undead at all. With Repose they can but that doesn’t remove the undead’s turn resistance.

I think I added some fests to help turn undead in the new hak iirc.

Okay,  thank for replies.
It's not mechanical issue or a bug, it's just designed to be that way according to this server setting.
