see that's the "close enough" joke i WOULD have made but i already did it in the other thread. so.

frankly, considering some of the things i've seen argued on this forum, and some of the things i've seen argued off of it, i have to disagree with that assumption. let me put it this way - if you don't believe the people on this forum are meaningfully better (or worse) then the average player...

4e rituals plus

tomes? close enough. welcome back, 4e rituals

pactweaver? close enough. welcome back, binder

...so you DO think people on this forum are better at identifying imbalance then the average player. this is my problem with this sort of argument - people just sort of assume that if you discuss something you can't possibly otherwise represent the average consumer of that thing. you have no...

that's an EXTREMELY different statement from: which is what you originally said. fellow zeitgeister detected. i actually personally think 4e has the most boring leveling pacing of any version of zeitgeist - it does the standard "you don't get to the highest level of the ap until the final...

yeah ngl retiring a character by having them start an affair with a literal slave trafficker is crazy work that threw me for about 6 loops

tie dcs to an ability modifier, make them simple weapons instead of improvised, and let them be deployed in place of an attack. that seems like problem solved to me.
