[QUOTE="Zibik, post: 3390222, member: 43308"] I'm curious, do you plan to create another set of feats to offset these? IE a feat that allows +20 to hit for one round or the like. Now that sounds bad. *shiver* Honestly, I'm not sure I understand the logic of not wanting players (or monsters for that matter) to do the best they can to survive. The reason those big attacks are used first is to increase the odds of survivability. If you can do 30 percent of the hit points in one round thats less damage you have to do in later rounds, and that is less time to be harmed. How is this bad thing? If you want fights to last ...use things like tactics, cover, etc. Pardon me if this is threadjacking, I greatly respect anybody who puts the time and effort into the creation of something, and I'm not knocking your playing style at all. If this is what you want go for it, but to me this seems like its unnecessary. Like GreatLemur said, use action points if its a problem. [/QUOTE]
