Customized Advanced Maneuvers

So if they are all working as intended, we can bring this to a close

Thanks, Pedro

John that is not to say I’m not thinking of tweaking Sweeping,

I keep thinking that it needs a special rule to make it slower with faster weapons and faster with larger, slower weapons.

or I may just add a special note that it adds it’s full speed and recovery when combined with another maneuver

I kind of like the inverse speed idea. Maybe change it to speed 7(2) instead of +1(2) so the speed is constant (giving an advantage to larger/slower weapons). The slower weapons seem to be chosen far less often than faster weapons in Arcanis so something to improve them doesn’t seem amiss.

that will change soon enough, trust me

Same.
I mean I get the impression there’s a baseline “1-tick = X damage” formula, but slower weapons aren’t real popular in my experience except for fluff or some path.
Mostly the question is “do I get Mighty Swing at Tier 1?”

Lunging Spin (Advanced – Tier 1) – Paul Gerwe
Base Maneuvers: Lunge + Spinning Strikes
Attack: Avoidance (Pr)
Speed (Recovery): +1 (3)
Range: Melee
Effect: Weapon; you may move up to half your Pace before performing this attack. Movement provided by this maneuver may trigger free strikes. You may also move an additional 5′ before you perform your off-hand attack. If you successfully strike with your off-hand attack, you deal an additional damage equal to your Passive Quickness Value +1.
Special: The Speed cost of this maneuver replaces the standard speed cost incurred by two-weapon fighting.
Weapons: Any melee weapon or unarmed

Sweeping Spin (Advanced – Tier 1) – Paul Gerwe
Base Maneuvers: Sweeping Strike + Spinning Strikes
Attack: Avoidance (Pr)
Speed (Recovery): +1 (3)
Range: Melee
Effect: Weapon; you may perform an attack against any two opponents within melee reach with your primary weapon. Each attack must be rolled separately. You may attack an additional opponent within range once you reach +6 with any Melee skill specialization. You may also move an additional 5′ before you perform your off-hand attack against a single opponent. If you successfully strike with your off-hand attack, you deal an additional damage equal to your Passive Quickness Value +1.
Special: The Speed cost of this maneuver replaces the standard speed cost incurred by two-weapon fighting.

Base Maneuvers: Sweeping Strike + Spinning Strikes

Fixed that for you

Going to use these tonight?

Thanks for the catch. Yes, that’s the plan. That’s part of the reason I thought I’d post them here.

Just to double check you know you only get 1 attack with your off hand and not 1 attack against 2-3 foes?

It’s clear to me, but might want to specify just for clarity then I’ll add them.
