Comments

This charm as written seems too weak for a solar charm, particularly when contrasted with Precision of the Striking Raptor

Consider: At short range this charm is useless, while PotSR is fully effective. At medium range this charm costs three motes to eliminate a -2 penalty. PotSR could compensate for 2 motes. At long range this charm costs three motes to eliminate a -4 penalty; slightly more efficient than PotSR.

Summary: This charm's uses are currently limited to:

- Saving one mote when attacking at long range.

- Adding a small additional bonus at medium/long range when PotSR has already been maxed out on the attack.

- Solars who don't also have PotSR.

Actually tripling the range of the attack gives this charm a real use, although it still seems fairly weak. - Toram

I'd bet the last slice of pizza that it was intended that way, despite sloppy wording. - NatalieD
