[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 4633746, member: 710"] 1) Random Hit Points: Well, there are some drawbacks to it. I liked the Iron Heroes method best - roll 1d4+an amount depending on your class. To get approximately the same values as in 4E, use 4 hp per level = 1d4+2 5 hp per level = 1d4+3 6 hp per level = 1d4+4 7 hp per level = 1d4+5 (I think there is no class with that yet, but it come with PHB 2) 2) Cleric Healing. I wouldn't change that. The healing surges are basically one of your critical "per day" resources and if the Cleric can ignore them, he becomes more powerful then other Leader classes. Note that the Cleric has some powers (among them utlity powers) that let him do what you want (Cure Light Wounds, Cure Serious Wounds, mass Cure Wounds are the most obvious ones, but there are more.) 3) Rituals Rituals are basically what you might see "normal" people do in fantasy books or shows.
