04-06-07, 07:15 PM I am creating a half-giant Psychic warrior and need to know if she uses the power Expansion, will her powerful build go up to the next catagory also, going from being classified as large for beneficial things, to huge, or whatever the next catagory is?

Read the description of Powerful Build again.Powerful Build: The physical stature of half-giants lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger.

Whenever a half-giant is subject to a size modifier or special size modifier for an opposed check (such as during grapple checks, bull rush attempts, and trip attempts), the half-giant is treated as one size larger if doing so is advantageous to him.

A half-giant is also considered to be one size larger when determining whether a creature’s special attacks based on size (such as improved grab or swallow whole) can affect him. A half-giant can use weapons designed for a creature one size larger without penalty. However, his space and reach remain those of a creature of his actual size. The benefits of this racial trait stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject’s size category.Thank you for playing, come again.

(Sarcasm aside, if you have a rules question, the first place to look is the rules.)

04-06-07, 07:33 PM Yeah, could have gone without the sarcasm. Not ungreatful, just didn't need the sass. Thanks TS.

04-07-07, 09:06 PM Okay, I get it. I goofed up. This thread is getting terribly spammy & I would hate to have to report my own thread to the mods. Can we simply let this die??

We tend to get goofy on this board.
