Earthdawn 4E: Rules Variant 25 - Updates Part 12: Path Updates

This is the twenty-fifth Rules Variant, part of an ongoing series about Earthdawn Fourth Edition. Introduction and Index.

Everything contained here is the work of a fan and not associated with FASA Games.

This is part of a significant update to better align things with lessons learned and best practices. The primary focus is updating various effects to static Difficulty Numbers, but this is not where it stops and it includes abilities outside that scope which require some attention.

The changes to these Paths are quite modest and replace Battle Shout with an appropriate talent and introduce Vengeful Flames to Fire Eater, which is entirely appropriate for them.

Refer to the previous update on Talents, Knacks, and Skills for changes to the following talents:

• Battle Cry
• Fearsome Assault
• Temper Flesh
• Vengeful Flames
