100% chance to make you look foolish?

[GutterFace]

just for the sake of argument, is this possible?

Azurian: Incarnate 5 / Unbral Disciple 3

with Bonus essnetia (Feat)

technically i would have 10 total essentia:
Azurian -1
5 levels of Incarnate -5
3 levels of Umbral Disciple - 2
Bonus Essentia feat - 2

if i invest all 10 into Embrace of Shadow i will have a 100% miss chance with concealment as well as hide in plain sight.

what would you do with this hilarious nonsense?

[sambouchah]

You don't have the Essentia capacity to do so. At level eight you can invest 2 essentia into a soulmeld IIRC.

Nothing, as you're missing a rule: the maximum essentia capacity on page 19. You can break that limit, but not by that much (IIRC).

[GutterFace]

its not a soulmeld but a class feature. and i didnt see anything in the class or the description that says its based on the table listed in the book of Max essentia you can invest.


EDIT: you are right. damn that chart. thank you

[Metahuman1]

I'm curious, is there a way to MAKE this work?

Be level 81+, or use Incandescent Champion's Incarnum Overload ability. The latter will only let the trick last for 1 round, though.

[Metahuman1]

Really? That's it? Wasn't there a feat in Incarnum to expand Essence Capacity?

There's one for soulmelds and one for incarnum feats, but nothing for class features.

[Metahuman1]

Huh, darn.

Get a skin of proteus and take the form of a Dusk Giant. Voila, you can now gain the required Hit Die to invest your essentia within (buy 42 chickens and eat them).
