I was also wondering about augment crystals with soulbound weapon. Would it work?

04-16-07, 11:15 PM The augment crystals are not part of the soulbound weapon class feature, so you'd have to buy them seperately and apply them each time you call your soulbound weapon. When the soulbound weapon vanishes, the augment crystals would drop to the ground.

The soulbound weapon variant is realy realy cool, but I would only use it if my character concept revolved around it. E.G., a psychic who focuses his talents towards researching and hunting a wide variety of creatures might learn to call his soulbound weapon so that he can always have the right combo of enchantments. He'd also have the feats Expanded Knowledge (call to mind), Psychic Skill User (2 knowledge skills and survival), and Track; and the skill trick Collector Of Tales, which grants a +5 to knowledge checks to ID a monster.

04-17-07, 06:29 PM No. That's not what I'm saying.

I'm saying that I, personally, would only use the Soulbound Weapon variant if being able to summon a weapon was vital to my character concept.

Then I gave an example.
