Unique Feats and Powers
- Channeling
- The Juggernaut may channel any single target memorized spell through a magic weapon during a normal attack as a free action 1 per day at first level, then once more every five levels. If the attack misses, the spell is wasted. Target may make a save as normal and magic resistance applies.
Total focus- In order to use his spells while plowing into a fight, the Juggernaut receives a +2 bonus to his concentration check at 2nd and every 5 level thereafter.
Penetration- At 3rd level and every 5 levels thereafter the Juggernaut gains a +1 bonus to penetrate spell resistance, with a additional +1 with any spell channeled though a magic weapon.
Inscription- At forth level the Juggernaut gains the ability to scribe spells into a magical weapon as if it were a scroll for same cost in money and experience point. A juggernaut may only do this to a single weapon at a time, inscribing another weapon means that he loses the ability to use any of his spells in all others. A juggernaut may scribe as many spells as his level in Arcane juggernaut. At 4th level the level the Juggernaut may only inscribe 1st level spells, every 5 levels after that he gains the ability to inscribe spells on 1 level higher.
Inscribed spells may be channeled at will as the channeling ability above, or commanded from the weapon by its inscriber as a scroll
Enhancement- At fifth level and every five level thereafter the Juggernaut receives a +1 bonus to all his attacks for the purpose of bypassing Damage reduction only, any additional magical bonuses stack atop of this bonus for bypassing damage reduction.
