P. 107, Basima Diasruiz. She is supposed to be a technomancer but she does not have any resonance score, nor complex forms. Much of her stat block look remarkably similar to the previous NPC's
-
Kilian Lester - Pg. 99
Alchemist with no alchemy formulas or edge attribute
Aspected Enchanter has nothing to learn from Geomancy and as such, gains no benefit to initiating in it. All the benefits of Geomancy are ritual spells and aspected enchanters do not have access to spellcasting.
Either Kilian Lester needs to be fixed or Geomancy does.
-
NPCs general note -
Some of the NPCs have Geomancy as a metamagic. There is no info on which Geomancy Rituals they have.
most of the grunt npcs have invalid values for their edge given their professional rating.
-
Hans Crackhaus
Hans has Earbuds Rating 2 with Audio Enhancement 3 (which exceeds the capacity). Is it supposed to be Earbuds 3 or Audio Enhancement 2?
-
Roberta Glazer - Pg 114
Has the negative quality prejudiced, but it doesn't state whether it's biased, outspoken or radical.
-
The Bodyguards on page 115 are missing a commlink to attach the Pi-Tac to.
-
Body Sculpt Adept Power
"The time required to change one feature is approximately one hour. Multiple features can be changed simultaneously with a Body + Magic Test, with each hit resulting in one additional change. The adept needs another full minute to undo the changes and return their features to normal. The time required to change one feature is approximately ten minutes. The adept needs another full minute to undo the changes and return their features to normal."
Which is it, one hour or ten minutes?
-
Veltha pg. 137
Under Metamagic powers, she has learned Extended Masking. Extended Masking is for mages or mystic adepts only. Veltha has no spells or skills relating to magicians. Is she an adept or mystic adept? If shes just an adept, she shouldn't have Extended Masking (which just extends the masking to sustained/quickened/anchored spells or preparations). If shes a mystic adept, she needs spells and skills to reflect that.
edit: Other issues
The two Rating 6 qi foci only contain 1.5 power points each for a power, but they have 3 power points consumed each with Improved Body 3 and Improved Strength 3
Called Shots isn't a legal specialization, its a quality (sharpshooter)
-
Brahmin Mage pg. 145
Gear includes a Counterspelling and Sustaining Focus but doesn't specify which category they work for.
-
Ghatak Commandos pg. 145
They have Kris in their weapons but this weapon isn't in other books and doesn't have a statblock in BB.
Bone Lacing only increases STR when used for Unarmed Combat damage, it's not just a general increase to Strength which is how it's treated on this statblock.
-
Pilar Carrillo, a.k.a. Mosaic
pg. 153
Character has 7 edge. Metatype (Dwarf) maximum is 6. Character is missing Lucky quality to raise it to 7. Is character supposed to have 6 edge or Lucky Quality and 7 edge?
Character's special attributes are out of order. It reads Edge 7, Essence 3, Magic 6.0 . It should be Edge 3, Essence 6.0, Magic 7
-
Vasquez Syndicate Meigo
pg. 153
Mage with a Magic rating of 1?
Etiquette has no skill rating.
Has the spell Chain Lightning which hasn't been added to 5E yet.
Has a Submachine Gun but no automatics skill to use it.
-
Eclipse Special Ops - pg. 155
Says they have 0.6 essence, they should have 0.35 as listed.
Augmented Strength should be an 8, not 7 (5 + 2 muscle replacement +1 thyroid).
-
Eclipse Special Ops Mage -
Magic of 1? If so, the character has far too many spells.
-
Brute Toxic Shaman -
Has a Binding Focus but it doesn't say for what type of spirit.
-
Ganger Hacker -
Computer skill group should be Electronics skill group
-
Mr. Johnson (High Level Initiate) pg. 158 -
Has Greater Reflection as a metamagic. Greater Reflection isn't a metamagic, its an interrupt action one can take after they learn the Reflection metamagic which the character already has.
-
Mr Johnson - Prominent Ork
Weapons - HK-227 has "Retractable Stock" modification, should be Folding Stock
-
Mr Johnson Law Enforcement Dwarf - p.158
Everything except for the attribute list is a direct copy of Mr Johnson the Prominent Ork at the top of the page.
-
Strong Willed Toxic Shaman, pg. 159
- Has magic 5 but has bound force 6 spirits and force 6 foci.
- Sustaining and Spellcasting foci are missing spell category
-
Strong Willed Toxic Shaman, pg. 159
- Has magic 5 but has bound force 6 spirits and force 6 foci.
- Sustaining and Spellcasting foci are missing spell category
RAW a magician with MR 5 can have a bound F6 Spirit, drain was physical instead of stun.
RAW a magician with MR 5 can have a Force 6 Foci, he just risks foci addiction, and since he's toxic would it surprise you that he was also an addict?
-
No, it was just that it seemed out of place. None of the other characters, including the other toxic shaman, have bound spirits or foci greater than their magic.
It seemed inaccurate, considering that nearly every other character's stat block or attribute block also had something wrong (such as putting edge or essence under the Magic attribute)
edit: And this is just a mook in the back of the book, not a specific npc or anything, which makes me think that his magic should be a 6.
edit2: And, if he is addicted, he's missing the negative quality.
