TOPIC: Arcanum Set Bonus

The plan is mirror the Eldritch set powers. See below. Thanks.

2 piece set power: +1 level, +4 HP, +1 to AC & saves, you may equip +1 figurine of power

Additional pieces: +2 to max HP and +1 to AC & saves for each additional piece

Jeff, that seems like a great idea, it helps all those that missed the Eldritch tokens. Even for those that have Eldritch Tokens, the only part of it that doesn't stack is the +1 Level.

Is there a cap on Figurines?

I think there is a cap, but I don’t know if this creates an exception that adds one more.

Cap per PHB is Max 1, unless you have 16 CHA, then you have the ability to equip "up to 2" figurines of power. Add Psyferre's tokendb.com/token/psyferres-spectacles/ and you can have a max of 3 it seems, and this new arcanum bonus would be a max of 4.

I think the only caps at the moment are on Iouns, Charms, and Beads.

This is a nice, solid set bonus for equipping high rarity tokens.

I think a "cap" in this context means a limit that can't be exceeded regardless of slot boosting tokens.

Currently, the only "caps" in that sense are Charm (max 10), Ioun (max 9), and Bead (max 8).

However, caps only tend to appear once there are muliple ways of adding items to the slot, so we may see a figurine cap at some point.

There is no "cap" on Figurines presently, you can equip however many you can contrive to with various tokens.

A character with 16 or higher CHA, and who has the Arcanum set bonus and also Psyferre's Spectacles could equip 4 Figurines of Power, which is the most you can have with current tokens (barring Artifact powers).

I really like the +1 level, the AC/save bonuses seem reasonable, and I am curious to see what an additional figurine will open up for builds (I see more brownies in my future).

I really like the set bonus. Maybe the 3rd piece unlocks a sub class? I actually thought that was cool in the first iteration of the ring.

Seems reasonable and fairly balanced.

Jeff, I like the proposed set bonus. Would you consider adding +1 focus as well to the bonus? They are the Arcanum set after all?

Correct. If you have a high enough CHA + equip some Arcanum items, you can equip 4 FoP.
