(Note: This bond was updated Jan 1st, 2023 as per change 8103. So, some of the below is old and needs updating.)

Bonding Requirements

20 Elder lore - More than just this is required, had 67 elder lore and could not bond until after I raised poison lore to 17.

Elder Lore alone does not appear to be enough. 52 on a new character also required 10 poison lore to bond a snake.

  • Bond Assim Skill is Elder Lore, TBD if there are others (definitely not Poison Lore) (beyond the regular for all bonds)
    • Upping Elder Lore from 36->313 gives ~11% Assim Speed, so roughly 1% every 25 points (remember bond assim is based on unmodified not modified skills)

Attribute Modifiers

Those who form an empathic bond with a snake receive bonuses to their Willpower, Agility, Intellect, and Perception.

Combat Maneuvers

Somewhat Frail:

  • Coiled Strike

Very Deep:

  • Soul Fang
Perform Soul Fang
Empathic Bonds Maneuver
Usage: perform soul fang [at <target>]
Activity Cost For You: Varies on weapon being used (see below)
Cost: 10 SP, 10 END
Drawing on esoteric and metaphysical knowledge, make a piercing strike that attempts to temporarily disrupt the connection between the body and the spirit.
  • Needs piercing weapon like Coiled Strike
  • Appears to possibly give SD (need to confirm), but need to hit and do enough damage in order to trigger it
  • Attack: Adds Arcane Lore at 1:1.1
  • Attack: Adds 60% additional Intellect
  • Damage: Adds 22% additional Strength
  • Damage: Adds 22% additional Massive Blow
  • Activity (Depends on Activity of weapon being used):
    • 26->20
    • 17->13
    • 15->11
    • 14->11
    • 12->9

Additional Abilities

Midway Very-Frail:

  • Snakes will periodically open and charge your chakras, all at once. The stronger the bond, the higher the charge.
    • At Complete bond the chakra charges are enough to top off and get traits like Paravision and Paraneurism
    • Ioun Stones DO work better w/ a Snake Bond, but the benefit is VERY VERY VERY small, possibly because Ioun Stones are almost universally garbage now therefore the bonus is garbage.

Before Resilient:

  • Ambidexterity (Not sure on this, apparently Zuth has this already. Can anyone confirm?)
