So, Unsarl's Hug can boost skills based on STR, would this work to move the rock? Which skill would the be, or is this some kind of direct STR roll?

Idril's magic seems more effective, but induces fatigue when it wears off.

Like D&D has some spells out of balance (sleep, charm, magic missile) HarnMaster has some too. Feat of Albarra is one of them, maybe the worst. I have had players run a cleric of Ilvir just to get that one invocation. It really should be a higher circle.

That said Hug is a solid invocation and I would rule it helps here too. If anyone has a different idea on how the math would work I am willing to hear it but this is how I have ruled in the past and why.

A +5% to skills with Str once and a +10 to Skills with Str twice converts to a +15 for a skill with Strength only (there are none), so since the conversion for an attribute test in % to get 4 levels of success is attribute x5, +15% is equal to +3 to Strength.

So Usnarl's Hug grants you a +3 to your Strength attribute.

Keep in mind the +5% to Condition (Str used once) also increases your Endurance by +1 since Endurance is Condition/5.

So yes, Hug will help here.

Can you stack invocation boosts, i. e. Use Hug and Albarra at the same time and get both boosts or just the highest?

I don't see why not. I would allow stacking.

As I am running Idril as an NPC, don't be afraid to suggest ideas for her to do.

Idril is fine attempting Feat of Albarra on someone. I ran out of time this morning so will look at Algrim's and Arngeir's Strengths after work and figure out what needs to happen. They may be strong enough on there own using a tree as a lever. The role play has been great.

Hullo all! Rex was gracious enough to let me have a whirl at HarnMaster.

Hi Tamerlaine, welcome aboard.

That's great, welcome!

Welcome Tamerlaine!

Thanks, guys!

How long do torches last?

Lets say 4 hours for now. Any one With Survival can improvise them, a MS lasts 3 hours and a CS lasts 4 hours.

I’ve got this situation with my delusional mother-in-law involved in an act of violence and I’m dealing with the fallout right now. Just letting you know I’m not posting until this is all resolved.

Sorry to hear that Tamerlaine. Good luck and we will be here when you can come back.

Sorry to hear that Tamerlaine. Good luck.

Had some busy days this week and got crazier the last 2 days so sorry for any delays in my posting. Had car trouble, work was busy then was grocery shopping and running errands just barely got some free time today.

No problem Ed, real life happens. I hope things settle down/get better for you soon.

I’m back, playing only.

Excellent news Tamerlaine. I will work you in later this week.
