Item for Sabrick
Hello all. Ok this is what I want to make. Looking to make an item that does the following. A shield that when held can be used for adding Parry to my Character. That when thrown can either be used as a thrown weapon or thrown at an ally that can either reduce the chance to of a ranged attack hit the ally or reduce the damage of a hit. When thrown it returns back to my character once the tasks are complete. Basically I would use thrown weapons to see if I succeed in damaging a foe or protecting an ally. It can do more those attack/protect but it suffers the same penalties of multiple actions. This would be themed as it bouncing around targets then returning to my arm. Obviously when I use the shield as a thrown item for that round I don’t gain the defensive benefits. I need it to block phase weaponry if possible. Looking for either a magic or tech item, I am indifferent. Need to know the cost and procedure of creation. Tell me all what you think

Re: Item for Sabrick
Blocking Phase weapons is simply not a thing a normal magic or supertech item can do. That is the whole point of phase weapons. Use barrier, armor, or deflection with a force field trapping. Or just add a naruni FF to your armor.

Base Item: Polymer Shield, Medium
Base Damage: Str+d4
Base Cost: 300 credits
Base Protection: +2 Parry or -2 Cover
Weight: 4 lbs, Min Str d4
Enchanted Damage: Str+2d4, AP 4.

Enchanted Aerodynamic Throwing Shield
- • Range: 3/6/12
• Damage: Strength+2d4, AP: 4
• Rate of Fire: 1
• +2 to Parry (or can be used for cover, at -2)
• Deflection (5/5 PPE) Special: As an action, the wielder can declare to protect one other person with Deflection for one attack against that target, Player's choice as to which (paying the extra PPE for additional targets for each declared defense target; Deflection must already be active). The deflection is then applied by throwing the shield to help deflect a shot. It returns to the wielder as a free action after the attack. This can cause multi-action penalties, depending on the number of other actions declared. While it is protecting others, it is not protecting the wielder (either the Parry/Cover bonus or Deflection, if active).
• Weight: 4 lbs. (Min Str: d4)
• Notes: This shield is made of an unknown light material that is highly resistant to damage.
• Rarity: -2 Build Cost: 50,300 credits Final Cost: GM Call

Re: Item for Sabrick
@High Command since the special power is deflection, would that deflection apply to phase weapons?

Re: Item for Sabrick
Only a Magic or Psionic based Deflection would affect a phase weapon. But no, a super tech (or even super power) based deflection would not affect a phase weapon.Technospawn wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 8:36 am @High Command since the special power is deflection, would that deflection apply to phase weapons?
EDIT: No wait, I better double check. Because it looks like Phase would go through a magic shield also. I have a friend I can ask for clarity if rereading does not help me.

Re: Item for Sabrick
@High Command Thanks for helping out a new player. Please take a conviction in The Struggle for being a team player.
Lets treat that "One attack" as enough to make it a Minor worth 10,000 as right now I just cannot think of a fair "not quite major" option.
@Sabrick_Vek Does the shield Patrick wrote up fit the bill for what you are thinking?
Build cost 50K, lets say final cost 100,000.

Re: Item for Sabrick
@Ndreare it is perfect working on how to get it now. Checking my options on procurement I will give you a story on the acquisition. Involves some of Sabrick back story and his sister, who is an up and coming Research & Development weapons tech.
