[QUOTE="clearstream, post: 8457271, member: 71699"] On the one hand I liked your summary of the appeal of E6. On the other hand, your criticism of my approach contains contradictions that are at odds with your usual clear thinking. Overall, what you say seems to confirm that I'm going in the right direction: continuing horizontal levelling within the established 5th edition framework, while curtailing vertical levelling. To argue that toning down HP and DPR progression is not 'powered down' is semantics, but anyway, that is what I meant by powered down. With my approach, characters continue to level, but perhaps you mean that 11th seems unnecessarily low as a cap? It's where I have designed and balanced to so far. Once my players get there (so I can see what is working) I might fill in the other levels (and possibly tweak to 'E8' as you suggest.) So thank you for your thoughts, they have been helpful. Perhaps not in the way you intended them to be. It does feel like there is something else going on in your response - a dislike for what I've proposed that you haven't so far been able to put into words. [/QUOTE]
