Hi,

Last night we played a game of S&S, one of us were playing Jirelle. After a while we got into a discussion about Jirelles Swashbuckling power.

Up to that point we had assumed that since the Rapier has the Swashbuckling trait, it allows her to use her reroll power on melee attacks. And since the Rapier also has the Finess trait she gets Melee: Dexterety+2 when attacking. Is this a correct interpretation?

Or does she need to add the Swashbuckling (and Finesse) trait(s) to her attack rolls some other way, for example by using an eyepatch? That could make sense, but that made us wonder about the finesse power, since we have seen no cards that add the finesse trait.

Could anyone help us clarify this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

As a thief Mersiel can get the ability to "use Charisma in place of any skill on any check to recharge an armor, item, or weapon with the magic trait".

Initially, this sounded great, so I thought I'd put two skill feats into charisma to increase the effectiveness of that ability. However, looking through the cards I found very few armor/item/weapon cards that have the magic trait and can be recharged through a check.

On a quick search I found only Wand of Force missiles and Wand of Scorching Ray and both of these require an 8 to succeed. If I put two skill feats in charisma, I still only succeed on a 6 (unless I use blessings or other cards to boost the check), so the risk of failing the check is very high.

At first I throught the ability sounded great, now I feel its usefullness is so limited that it's more or less useless.

Have I misinterpreted the ability somehow? Or missed a bunch of cards that I can recharge?

Thanks in advance!
