[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 5568606, member: 10177"] Leveling is already cool enough. When your BtH goes up, or you gain new spell abilities, saves increases, skill modifiers increase, or gain a new class ability, your getting more powerful. Some games put on so many bells and whistles that people forget what really matters. As for feats, I got rid of them in terms of how they are awarded (by level), I make them do SIEGE checks to pull it off, and when they succeed often enough, then I award it to them as a permanent character ability. So for my games, when they SUCCEED in pulling off some "feat" 25 times, they gain it as a character ability. So it is like a class ability, but is for that character. So if they try and cleave, succeed at it 25 times, they then do it without a SIEGE check. Then they can work towards something like great Cleave. This method is applicable to anything "feat like". Fighters and other fighter types seem to earn one about every 3 levels. Spell casters tend to earn theirs about 1 every 4 levels. About 7th or 8th level they start earning one every other level, since the rate of leveling slows down so much. [/QUOTE]
