So many aspects of 4e that people complain about are, at least to me, tiny hiccups that require a bit of imagination to patch up (if you have a problem with them in the first place, a lot of the things that people say are broken aren't, IMO), but they can't seem to take that leap.If it says X in the book, then it can't possibly be Xa.I find, in a game that is all about one's imagination, that this inability to think around what is presented, really baffling.And that's what's happening here. All he's saying is what most DM's and player's I've ever come across have been doing for years: crossing the streams. X feat from Y campaign book being used in Z setting. Hell, I know some DM's who take whole sections of fluff and just change placeholder names and voila, instant Greyhawk (stolen from Forgotten Realms, shhh, don't tell anyone, the Greyhawk fans might die of apoplexy!).What can I say? Get creative, people!</blockquote>
