10th level sorcerer +5 BAB 5th level Barbarian +5 BAB Practiced Barbarian +4 BAB = +14 BAB That's if I'm reading the feats, correctly: The fact that it's capped out at a maximum of the character's ECL helps keep it close to being balanced, in my opinion. Though, it is probably still...

Nor, do I. I use a few of the ideas that I've gleaned from Monte Cook's Books of Experimental Might. One is that I automatically award more feats as the characters advance in level. I don't do it exactly like Monte recommends, but it's close. What I do is I award every character two feats...

My apologies for not getting back to this thread, sooner. Yes. It increases the character's character level just as if they'd gained a level in any other class or prestige class. Yes. Yes. Of course, the DM might want to rule that only 5 or 10 levels of this prestige class could be taken...

Thanks for the input, Scurvy Platypus. An interesting thought. I'll have to take a look at it in more detail, time-permitting. You're probably right. I don't really know that much about 4th Edition. I've never played it. But, that shifty stuff the new kobolds can do is nice. The game...

Epic6th is a great idea. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my players to agree to limit their characters to only 6th level. But, to the main question(s), as I see them, in the thread. What I offer my players is this: A special prestige class that offers only feats. Taking a level in this...

No, it wouldn't be subject to an attack of opportunity. It would work like any other 5' step. Yes, they could take it at any point during their turn. It could even be combined with their normal 5' step so that they could move 10' without provoking an attack of opportunity. I do see your...

I've put the links to two Third Edition specific ENworld forums in my sig.

4E Bit for 3.5: Shifty I've been looking through the newest online Dragon articles. To be honest, I think I'm definitely sticking with 3.5. However, all my 3.5 kobolds will now gain the "shifty" ability of the new kobolds. I'm making it as a feat, too. Here's the rough draft: SHIFTY...

Thankfully, the decision of whether or not to convert to 4E is all my decision. I'm honestly considering dropping the skill system from 3x, entirely. In it's place, I'm considering using the Castles & Crusades Siege system. We implemented a home-brewed healing surge system for 3.x and got to...

Haven't gotten the books, yet, but I did get to look through the 4E Player's Handbook for a couple of hours, this afternoon. For those that have played 4E, do you consider it to be "Rules Light" compared to 3.Xe? Thanks!

I didn't see any threads announcing this, yet. So, my apologies if it's already been shared, here, on ENworld. Monte Cook's Book of Experimental Might II: Bloody, Bold, and Resolute is scheduled for release in PDF edition on Monday, May 5! :6: :5: :4: :3: :2: :1: :cool:

Or, maybe, it's the solution??? Maybe, the daily martial powers are so demanding that they can only be done once a day UNLESS something replenishes the character's ability to perform the daily? What if a character could spend a number of healing surges to be able to use a daily power a second...

I don't think BOXM will be available in stores. It appears to be strictly PDF and Lulu only. So, I doubt your friend was trying to sell it. I was able to implement pieces of it in my games, over the weekend, along with stuff from Pathfinder RPG Alpha and some house-ruled stuff from the 4e...

There would have to be a lot of other changes, I'm sure. But, if I understand 4E (and I'm not saying that I do), 4E is using that basic formula. So, the 4E fighter will only have a a point or two more of a bonus to hit than the wizard at 20th in 4E. I actually think it will only be +1...

True. 3.x's math does seem flawed. I've an idea for how to fix it, but it requires rewriting just about everything. Here's what I thought: Level / 2 for the base bonus to everything like in the 4E previews. Classes with good BAB and save progressions get a +2 to whatever they're good at...

3.75 House Rules I have Monte Cook's Book of Experimental Might. And, I love much of it. I'm not crazy about the 20 spell levels because I use Arcana Evolved and I don't want to convert the 10 spell levels in there to 25 spell levels. And, I'm very comfortable with 9 spell levels. There's...

Definitely a loss to the ENWorld community. His E6 system was is still a great idea. I just found this TRAPs thread. So, I'll be taking a look through it in the coming days. I hope he returns.

I would've hope for a cover more like this one:
