What type of character should I apply this boon to?


Pathfinder Society


I recently attended a con and earned a boon that allows me to give any character the kineticists blast ability. Either getting a physical blast for 1d6+1+CON mod or an elemental blast foe 1d6+1/2 CON mod. I was wondering what character this would be useful on. I as thinking either a bloodrager or barbarian but I could see a fighter or paladin getting some use out of it. But the idea of a monk throwing blasts around is pretty appealing to me as well.

Also this seems like a pretty strong boon to me but I'm kinda new to PFS so I don't really know if I should really worry to much about it.

Any ideas from you guys?

I'm no expert in such matters, but if these blasts are ranged touch attacks, a character who likes to keep their hands free and has a high DEX (like a monk) would seem like an ideal choice.

The Exchange 4/5 5/5

Pay attention to the line on the chronicle that says "Once you use this boon, cross it off your chronicle sheet."

You get one blast, ever. Knowing that, decide which of your characters is most likely to discover a previously unknown inner well of elemental energy. Bloodrager or monk seem the most thematically likely of the classes you mentioned but any character with a good story is a choice.

Liberty's Edge 3/5 5/5 **** Venture-Captain, Nebraska—Omaha

The physical blast goes against normal AC, the element blast goes against touch AC and is also subject to SR.

5/5 **** Venture-Captain, Massachusetts—Central & West

Thematics aside and the one time use aside, remember that a Kineticist's blast is an okay way of dealing damage to swarms. Probably best to throw it on a character who doesn't have an effective way to deal with them.

Quote:

Even the weakest kinetic blast involves a sizable mass of

elemental matter or energy, so kinetic blasts always deal full
damage to swarms of any size (though only area blasts deal extra damage to swarms).

5/5 5/55/55/5

Rogue. Good dex and you can sneak with it i think.
