[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7625684, member: 20564"] [U]Questions[/U] [B]Determining ability score?[/B] 1. How do you determine ability score to use? Like can weapon wielders pick either STR or DEX? Or does an archer fighter need STR? How about unusual builds, like a DEX based barbarian? Could a paladin choose CHR or STR or is it set to one? [B]Spellcasting[/B] 2. Is each spell slot a separate roll, or is "spellcasting" a single check? [B]Features with uses[/B] 3. For features with uses or charges, is the recovery for all or each? Recovering Ki for a Monk, or Superiority dice for a Battlemaster fighter. [B]Racial features[/B] 4. How do you recover racial features like the Half Orc's Relentless Endurance? If it's a roll, what ability score does it use? [U]Concerns[/U] [B]Short Rests same Day[/B] 5. Short rests classes are balanced against other classes by being able to be recovered several times in a day. Wouldn't increasing the DC for mutliple checks on the same day really hurt classes like Warlock? [B]Forcing ASIs[/B] 6. This seems to penalize any player who doesn't raise their character's primary ability score at every chance they can until it's maxed. If a player takes a feat or raises something else, not only are they missing out on, say, +1 to hit and +1 to damage for every single attack, but also have a harder time recovering their abilities penalizing them further. [B]Multiclassing[/B] 7. Also, how does it work for multiclassing? A character with multiple classes with different prime abilities scores is already at a disadvantage, is this an additional penalty that they labor that they recover one or both classes slower? 8. If I'm a cleric/wizard, my spell slots are from a combination of all of my caster levels. What ability score do I use? [/QUOTE]
