Weapon Master Version 1.0 link.
So I'm putting together ideas for a few home brewed.
So this is, obviously, version one of Weapons Master. I like incorporating Parry/Parry (Improved) and Reinforce Item, and I think Stunning Blow fits, but the rest I'm not attached to. I considered maybe including Ranged (Heavy) and some talents, but that would make this tree pretty jack of all/master of all.
I dont understand how the talents are linked. And is this a career or a spec? I guess it is missing the lightsaber skill... I would expect it to have it.
I'm assuming this is a universal spec? Or is it meant to be attached to an existing FaD career?
Honestly, I'm not sure that Force Weapon is really needed, since you've already got Feral Strength in there to add a bonus to damage. Also skeptical about Reinforce Item being included, as that's kind of a signature talent for the Armorer, so adding it here feels like cherry-picking.
Natural Blademaster also feels out since nothing else in the spec applies to Lightsabers. You'd probably want Natural Brawler from EotE (found in the Marauder spec) instead, as that has the same effect but applies to Brawl and Melee checks.

I was thinking linking it to Warrior, but what have you.
I assume Reinforce Item represents this. Or something similar. That's why I included it. I see the point about the other talent options though.

I don't have the formatting skills that some have when making custom specs look like from something from the book. Just follow the arrows. If a talent doesn't have an arrow underneath it, it's a 'dead end' talent on the tree. And I specifically didn't include the Lightsaber skill on purpose.
And tweaked.
Putting Telepath out there.
At a glance the only thing I would immediately change is the connection between Sleight of Mind and Overwhelm Emotions. The reasoning behind this is you have made it cost much much less to take than if you were to take it through the Force Sensitive Exile tree. Its a matter of 30 xp from the Telepath tree versus 95 xp through FSEx. I'm assuming due to the name (Telepath) that this was deliberate for fluff reasons.
I like the Memory Rub talent but it seems to me that should be a bottom row talent. I would swap it with Slippery Minded and then remove the connection between it and Sense Emotions.
I always enjoy seeing new specs and talent trees.
