[QUOTE="Slaved, post: 3439788, member: 43358"] I had a dm who treated it as roughly a +1 (I think that some class combinations had an extreme enough difference in power that he actually used a range judging by the experience that we recieved). We also had the option of getting 10 (or was it 12?) extra point buy points for our base statistics at first level if we accepted an extra +1 LA. Having more options is nice, along with nearly everyone having at least medium base attack bonus and d8 for hit dice, but since you still only have so many actions in a given round many of the extras just did not have a chance to come up. The difference between having 15 options and 25 options means that you are more versitile depending on the situation but not necissarily more [i]powerful[/i] in any given situation. [/QUOTE]
