Tirade (Rage Power)

Tirade (Ex)

Requires: Barbarian 1, Superstitious Mien

Benefit: Once per round as a free action, you issue a furious stream of biting words and harsh invective at a nearby foe, calling on the spirits to blight its life. One foe within 15 feet of you that you can perceive suffers a number of points of rugosic (physical, uncommon) damage equal to your WIS modifier plus your Barbarian class level, and gains the Jinxed condition until the start of your next turn. There is no to-hit roll or save against this damage. Creatures that have partial or total immunity to conditions still suffer Tirade's rugosic damage (though they can mitigate it if they have the appropriate DR).

Tirade cannot be activated in the same round as any other rage powers capable of inflicting a status condition, unless it inflicts status conditions from the same array (i.e. Jinxed, Hexed or Cursed).

Progression:

• 11th Level: You can choose one foe you can perceive within 30 feet of you as the target of your Tirade (increased from 15 feet). Tirade now inflicts damage equal to your full WIS ability score (not modifier) plus your barbarian class level, as well as the Jinxed condition.
• 21st Level: Tirade now inflicts damage equal to your barbarian class level plus your WIS ability score (not modifier) times your experience tier. (For example, a level 21 Superstition Barbarian with a WIS of 26 inflicts 235 points of rugosic damage with their Tirade. This is calculated as their level of 21 plus their WIS ability score of 26 (21 + 26 = 47) times their experience tier of 5 = 235.) Tirade now inflicts Hexed, instead of Jinxed. The Hexed condition lasts until the start of your next turn.
• 31st Level: Tirade now an enemy you can perceive within 100 feet of your space (increased from 30 feet). Tirade causes the same damage, but now inflicts Cursed, instead of Hexed. The Cursed condition lasts until the start of your next turn.
