[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6938057, member: 57383"] It's every 1d4 rounds, so the average is once every 2.5 or 40% per round. We also need to remember it tail does regular bludgeoning plus Strength modifier damage as well as the foxfire. Oh, and the tail also has increased reach - the basic Foxdragon is Tiny (base reach 0 ft.) but has a 5 ft. reach with its tail. Let's see, assuming standard True Dragon tail damage it'll have. [COLOR=#ff0000]Foxdragon: 1d3-2 plus 1d3 fire plus burn[/COLOR] Wyrmling: 1d3 plus X foxfire Very Young: 1d4+1 plus X foxfire Young: 1d6+3 plus X foxfire Juvenile: 1d6+4 plus X foxfire Young Adult: 1d8+6 plus X foxfire Adult: 1d8+9 plus X foxfire Mature Adult: 2d6+12 plus X foxfire Old: 2d6+13 plus X foxfire Very Old: 2d6+15 plus X foxfire Ancient: 2d6+16 plus X foxfire Wyrm: 2d8+18 plus X foxfire Great Wyrm: 2d8+19 plus X foxfire The above assumes it gets 1.5 times its Strength bonus as per normal True Dragon tail slap. I'm inclined to make it 1.0 times its Str bonus and tweak the bludgeoning damage dice up a step. Basically have its tail base damage be a match to a True Dragon's bite damage and make the Hu Lung's bite a secondary attack (since that's pretty much what we did with the Foxdragon): [COLOR=#ff0000]Foxdragon: 1d3-2 plus 1d3 fire plus burn[/COLOR] Wyrmling: 1d4 plus 1d4 foxfire Very Young: 1d6+1 plus 2d4 foxfire Young: 1d8+2 plus 3d4 foxfire Juvenile: 2d6+3 plus 4d4 foxfire Young Adult: 2d6+4 plus 5d4 foxfire Adult: 2d6+6 plus 6d4 foxfire Mature Adult: 2d8+8 plus 7d4 foxfire Old: 2d8+9 plus 8d4 foxfire Very Old: 3d6+10 plus 9d4 foxfire Ancient: 3d6+11 plus 10d4 foxfire Wyrm: 4d6+12 plus 11d4 foxfire Great Wyrm: 4d6+13 plus 12d4 foxfire Hmm, that might work. I approve of the way the foxfire damage is approximately the same as the base tail+Str damage like with the Foxdragon. I don't mind adding the idea. If we do that the "touch" version would only do foxfire damage though, not the tail+Str+foxfire of the normal melee attack. [/QUOTE]
