[QUOTE="Kemrain, post: 1459677, member: 12153"] A feat every level? I'd be more likley to take 20 levels in Fighter if they got more skill points. Even with a feat every level, I'd never take more than 4 levels in the class. I [b]am[/b] a multiclass-phile, but still, I don't see how this would encourage anyone to do anything other than use Fighter as a Combat-Prowess-Injection, rather than a career path. As a character-building tool, Fighter is a great class. As a career path, it drops the ball, loses it, and then proceeds to lie about ever having seen a ball. I don't think this will address the issue, as by the time you have most of the feats you want for your character, you're at Prestige Class level anyway, even without doubled up feats. [Rereading that, it sounds kinda hostile, but I'm not sure how to remedy that. It's not suppoded to be!] This all comes down to how you view the classes. If you think of them as the archtype, or profession your character is a part of, then being able to take 20 levels of it is important. However, if you look at them as nothing more than tools to build the PC you want, then never taking more than 4 levels of Fighter is AOK. I don't think the problem needs to be fixed, to be honest (Though I would give Fighters 4 Skill Points a Level, regardless.) If it works for you, fantastic! It doesn't work for me, and that's okay, too. I just wanted to show another way of looking at the situation. - Kemrain the Rog 4, Rgr 2, Ftr 1, Mag 1. [/QUOTE]
