Coming from the Assassin Supplements

1. Is your version of the Poison ability used when making poisons or when applying them to a weapon?

Neither, I don't like the chance of failure or poison exposure while poisoning a weapon or object and as there are no poison creation rules (and was lazy about creating them) this QC is able to identify the presence of poison, not creating it (but can use it with no special rules).

2. I haven't used any Quasi classes so let me make sure I understand the XP: A Thief/Assassin would need 36000xp to reach level 6. Does that sound right?

Exactly, the XP needed is the sum of both values for the given level.

3. A level 1 Thief/Assassin would have a 30 in HIDE and a 40 in MS correct?

Correct. Both values are better on the QC but as to not "erase" the Thief learning there is the +10%.

4. Can this Quasi Assassin class use the thief allocation point option as described on page 153 of the core rules? If so how would that work since they have less skills?

Don't know how this could affect the class, but you can use 21/14/6 as points for the QC alone, for a Thief/Assassin start with the best values, add +10% on repeated skills, then go with the 30/20/10 as per normal Thieves.

5. Can this Quasi Assassin be any race?

I don't see why not...

Excellent! The supplement Assassin doesn't sit well with me. The loss of find/remove traps and the racial restriction really hurt this class imho. Though I noticed in Solo's Glain Companion he allows half-humans to be Assassins. I wonder why that wasn't added to the supplement. Anyways your ideas should be implemented into the existing class. It would make the existing Assassin substantially better. So nice work my friend.

P.S. Do you like your quasi Assassin over the supplement version as well?

After playtasting of the assassin QC via cbarchuk (thanks!) and some review I've reduced its XP value, same thing for the medic and the savage quasi-classes.

The Assassin supplement is older than Half Humans. Nobody ever went back and corrected it.

Question regarding the Acrobat Quasi-class. It lists multipliers for High and Long Jump. What values am I using those values for? Can't find anything in the Core book regarding jump distances and the only other supplement I found anything was the Secondary Skills supplement where the target number is the # of feet jumped.


Moved to corresponding thread by Dimirag

Those values aren't on the Core Rulebook, and the QC2 does not make use of other supplements (even QC1 is optional).
The actual jumping values should be set by the GM.
