The Legerdemainist(A 4E Rogue paragon path)

[Jakodee]

This is a PP designed for all you skill monkeys who love picking the pocket of the quest-giver.

The Legerdemainist:
"No officer, I don't know where that man's purse went."

Prerequisite: Rogue class, Thievery a trained skill

You have practice with you hands for years, honing them to perfect tools. No, not for crafting, for relocating peoples valuables, and getting past the traps guarding them.

Legerdemainist Path Features

Legerdemainist Action(11th level): You may spend an action point to reroll a thievery check.
Practiced "Acquirer"(11th level): You gain a +4 bonus to thievery checks and +2 bonus to stealth.
Master "Acquirer"(16th level): You may roll twice on any thievery check and use the better result.

Pretty basic except for the last attack. Any constructive criticism or feed back is welcome.

[Inevitability]

The 12th level utility power can be worded better.

Like this:


Was Never There (Legerdemainist Utility 12)
Encounter, Martial
Free Action, Personal
Trigger: You fail a thievery check or miss with an encounter or daily attack power.
Effect: You are invisible until the end of your next turn or may immediately take a move action as a free action.


Explanation:
-The upper line wasn't worded the way powers normally are.
-The minor action keying off of a trigger is weird and contradicts itself. While there are a few classes that have something like that, you are generally better off by just making it a free action.
-The effect line wasn't worded very well.

And for the daily power... I honestly think you should change it. It can be stronger than a stun in some cases, but against other enemies, it will only mean that they lose their MBA.
In 4e, there are no powers that are useless against one enemy, but very useful against others.
