[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8443131, member: 5889"] I did my first general read through. I like the action economy; it’s a strong statement that an ascended character is just flat out badass. It reminds me of the last clash of the titans movie where the gods came down and were moving so quick the mortals were standing still. It pairs well with your “normalizing rules”, to keep combat simple even if flavor wise the battle could be over in seconds considering how fast everything is moving. I was not a fan of getting an extra d20 per rank. That gets clunky at 3 rolls and especially 4, and it’s hard to work with disadvantage especially. Lastly more dice start to have less and less benefit. I would rather just something like “gain a bonus to all d20 rolls equal to your divine rank”, if there was any place where we could break 5e bounded accuracy I think it’s the deities. exalted proficiency could use a cleanup. So I have expertise…but not proficiency. I have a bonus…but I use my talent score. So is it my talent score plus expertise? It’s just not clear here [/QUOTE]
