⚒️Path Of Smithing⚒️
Path Of Smithing: Special Rule
Instead of normal Path Upgrades, Abilities, or Perks, the Path Of Smithing uses Power Progressions.
Power Progressions are a fusion of Abilities and Perks, meaning that they count as either and can be gained by either Training or spending Battle Points
INT or WIS : Repair
Skill Check
Measures your ability to repair a piece of technology or equipment and restore it to a functioning state. Using this skill check without your tools results in an automatic critical failure. Gain a +2 bonus to the skill check
(Can be taken during Character Creation and Requires Smithing Tools or Engineering Tools)
When you go the Path Of Smithing, choose either Weapon Maker or Armor Maker as your first Path
After choosing, immediately gain a resource pool of Scrap Points equal to two times your Wisdom plus your Utility Bonus.
This resource pool does not recover at a long rest and is finite, it can be refilled by finding more scrap manually.
