[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 7477254, member: 6775477"] It depends on what you're looking for. Are there lots of choices upon leveling up? Not compared to 3E, but more than AD&D and BECMI. It also depends on if Feats and Multi-classing are allowed in your game, as those open a lot more options. If you're interested in the crunch bits, then it varies by level. Some levels are far more exciting than others. In the simplest form, even levels are kinda boring for full casters, as you're just gaining more spells of levels you already know, whereas on odd levels you get an entire new range of spells. Fifth level is big for warrior characters, getting the extra attack class feature, but it's also fun for the casters to up their cantrip dice.If feats are available, and level where you can get a feat is very exciting if there's one you want (ASI is kinda cool, but not quite as exciting). Getting your sub-class can be an exciting level as well, since those are character defining abilities. [/QUOTE]
