Solarian Supernova Blast Radius Rules


General Discussion


2 people marked this as a favorite.

Greetings Starfinders, its Tyler from Cosmic Crit. I wanted to share a rules discussion we've been having as players recently and I thought maybe other groups might have had similar issues.

Our Solarian, Rebecca, is looking forward to 9th level when her Supernova ability will increase in radius from 10' to 15'. Due to the wording of the ability there was some talk about whether the increase was a permanent increase or if the Solarian could chose whether her blast was 10' or 15' at the time of activation.

We were split on the interpretation so we contacted awesome man Owen K.C. Stevens and asked for his clarification. According to him the blast radius is optional meaning the Solarian can chose for it to be 10' or 15' or 20' at the appropriate level. This is pretty awesome and really helpful for those encounters where space is limited.

So there it is. I wonder if any other groups have had similar discussions? If so, I hope this small piece of info helps others in the future.

Thanks, Tyler. I’m playing a Solarian and i’d just assumed it was always the larger radius. Appreciate the clarification.
