[QUOTE="Aegir, post: 3628025, member: 52089"] While I'd agree that Toughness is probably one of the worst feats in the game ([I]the[/I] worst in all likelihood), I think E6 makes it more valuable, because the value of individual feat slots decreases (since you get so many), while the value of HP drastically increases (you get 6 HD, thats [I]it[/I]). Even so, I'd change Toughness to a combination of Imp. Toughness and AE's "Sturdy", which basically translates to "Con mod x2 or +1hp/HD, whichever is greater." While using the XP system as-is, there really isn't a simple way, short of declaring X number of bonus feats equals +1 LA for purposes of XP gain (thus you don't get bonus XP for being behind in level). Still, I prefer the system I use, which is effectively to separate "normal" XP (adventuring/encounters/etc) from bonus XP (RP/Char Dev/etc), and providing several uses for the bonus XP (primarily exchange for Action/Hero points, XP component in spells, "repairing" cohorts (replacing NPC classes with PC), and at the extreme end, extra class levels). Adding "buy feats" to that wouldn't really disrupt anything. [/QUOTE]
