The trolls are not entertaining and do not contribute to the goal of producing the ultimate DnD edition hybrid! The original promise of being able to honor a character of any edition or at least taking the best from all.Here's my somewhat incomplete take (which I have implemented in my campaigns, which have gone on for years.)From 1/2e - Henchmen, minions, and followers if the PC want them. 1/2e encounters were designed around this, particularly for the mid levels which I thought as the sweet spot. I use a variation on this when planning encounters.- Ability caps just to keep out the insane power creep of 3/4 e but with a few upper limits to better support epic and demipower level play.from 3e- With Savage Species rules, you can play ANYTHING! Sentient gelatinous ooze with dragonbane rocket launchers? Sure.. as long as the DM allows it and it meshes with the campaign. Not for everyone, but i love that freedom. I have had campaigns in my homebrew 5e where people have played dragons with class levels. It was fun and epic to run for.- Paragons, demigods, and deities possible for PCs. Not auto given like in 4e Epic Destiny or unavailable like 5e.- 10th level spells and tablets. Though the spell seeds and hard math of the Epic Level Handbook should be in the trash.- Magic item creation system, but minus the XP cost. 4e has risiduum. Much better.From 4e- Residuum and disenchanting. Residuum is a great resource and makes loot time a lot more interesting.- Skill challenges, but more freeform and fleshed out.From 5e- Everything except the beastmaster class which can be fixed merely by giving the beast all it's actions.Just to name a few. However, would not want to bore the forums by dumping pages of house rules...lol!</blockquote>
