[QUOTE="aboyd, post: 4485135, member: 44797"] I second the mention of Divine Feats & Reserve Feats. However, for my contribution to this topic, I'll say that I like the general twists & turns of the character building rules. Fans of 4th edition bemoan how 3.5 makes it possible to have a gimped character. And it's true -- you can build a character badly, and end up with something unimpressive as early as level 7 or 8. By the time they hit 20th, they can be a mess. But since this part of the D&D 3.5 system is one of the things that differentiates it from 4th, and since I [i]love[/i] learning how to build a good character, I will suggest that it is the one thing that stands out for me as excellent. I'm a member of the Brilliant Gameologists forum, I love CharOp, and I have no problem creating a character at level 20 in PCGen just so I know how my level 1 character will turn out. I am still eager to play a bard in 3.5 edition. It's something I haven't done, but I'm fairly sure that with all the strategy guides for it I may actually be able to create a bard that kicks butt waaaaaaayyy beyond anything people usually expect from bards. I will enjoy that aspect of the game quite a bit. [/QUOTE]
