[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7533797, member: 82504"] Oh right smacks forehead been too long 4e doesn't use the same more attacks technique for increasing ability it is much more gradual in part because it starts at a higher point if you start your 1e at level 5 and going to level 10 was the same distance as level 10 in 4e its about that gradual ... note with dailies and encounters and the like providing spikey booms (which are a bit like instead of one every 4 rounds its once per encounter or once per day) and over all power spikes are more I hit paragon level and I hit Epic levels. (neither of which is doubling defensive or offensive power) and are something everyone gets. These are thematically at least along the lines of getting Name level capstone abilities. 5e does use the poof I am twice the attacker offensively I used to be when they hit level 5. But in 1e when I hit level 2 I am twice the combatant (defensively) that I was one level ago and this is supposedly after having many years of being training. In 5e you probably don't double your defensive ability til level 3. And in 4e that is might be 6th level. OK 5 levels of advancement in 4e is probably only 3 levels in 5e or 1e but it is still significantly slower. [/QUOTE]
