Compliant Gold and Flashblade


Rules Discussion


Hello, I have a question about Compliant Gold and Flashing Blade.

Compliant Gold :

Quote:
Immanence ... If it already had the reach trait, it instead increases your reach by an additional 10 feet, instead of the usual additional 5 feet.

Nodachi Reach 10 feet

Nodachi with compliant Gold Reach 20 feet ?

Flashblade :

Quote:

+1 striking nodachi.

Activate—Prepare Flash [two-actions] (concentrate); Frequency once per 10 minutes; Effect You concentrate with complete focus on your surroundings, breathing in the flashblade’s magic to make you lighter and faster, and the blade of your sword more flexible. You Ready a melee Strike, increasing the flashblade’s reach for that Strike to 15 feet. If the trigger doesn’t occur, this doesn’t count against the flashblade’s frequency.

Greater :
This is a +2greater striking nodachi, and the activated reach increases to 20 feet.

Major :
This is a +3greater striking nodachi, and the activated reach increases to 25 feet.

Flashblade with compliant Gold Reach 25 feet / Greater Reach 30 feet / Majour Reach 35 feet ?

Is it possible to a add a property weapon rune on a flashblade ?

Thanks for your future answer.


Nodaichi has a reach of 10 because the Reach trait gives it an additional 5.

Compliant gold is "instead of the additional 5"

So a Compliant Gold Nodaichi will have a reach of 15 (5 normal+10 from Compliant Gold).

Flashblade RAW won't get any extra increase since the extra reach of the activatable ability is not due to the Reach trait but something specific to that magical weapon.

Not an unreasonable ask for a houserule by your GM if he wants to modify it though. In that case it would be 20/25/30.

No you can't add property runes on specific magic weapons like flashblade.
