FFD20 Power Weapons

Power Weapons: These rods/staves are built for mages or anyone with an MP pool and a caster level. Most casters are proficient in these weapons. It requires an MP pool and caster level to use, even if you have the Exotic Weapon Proficiency with them. Magicite powers these weapons to imbue with elemental damage. All power weapons are made out of wood, except for the flail’s head and chain which is made of metal. All power weapons are counted as supernatural and do not function within anti-magic fields nor can they fire into them. Rapid Shot does not work with Power Weapons. While most power weapons can be activated with a standard action, melee power weapons can be activated with a charge.

Ranged Power Weapons have a set range of 30 feet and use ranged touch attacks rather than ranged attacks and provoke attacks of opportunity, whereas Melee Power Weapons can only attack adjacent targets with a reach of 5 feet and use melee touch attacks rather than melee attacks and do not provoke attacks of opportunity. It requires a standard action and must have at least 1 MP in your MP pool to activate. Since they use a standard action to activate it is not treated as an attack action, therefore they do not benefit from iterative attacks or anything that would normally affect an attack action including Two-Weapon Fighting or Vital Strike nor from anything that grants an attack with a weapon such as Step Up and Strike or Whirlwind Attack. Users may still take Weapon Focus for power weapons. A Power Staff/Rod can be used as a normal quarterstaff/club, respectively, in melee combat, but don’t grant the elemental damage.

Instead of using the user’s STR modifier, or other modifiers, Power Weapons deal extra damage equal to the wielder’s casting modifier, which is capped by their caster level (ex: CL of 3 with a casting modifier of +5 would equal +3 elemental damage), power flails can be wielded two-handed to multiply the modifier by 1.5x, while power poles must be wielded two-handed. Size has no effect on damage dice.

These weapons are unique in their design, in that they produce elemental damage but in such a way that they aren’t enough to heal the wounds of creatures that would normally absorb the element. If a creature with absorption is hit by a power weapon of the same element, they instead just negate the damage.

To craft a Power Weapon, the crafter must have the Craft Magic Arms and Armor item creation feat and the dark orb, elemental orb, or holy orb cantrip. They have a CL of 1 and are crafted like normal magic items. Power Weapons can only have enhancements from the Power Weapons Special Abilities table located here.
