[QUOTE="aco175, post: 9205458, member: 27385"] Pulling at the thread of class powers will tug at the HP thread in the fabric of the game. Once we double the HP monsters have, people will complain about combat taking too long. I did like 4e and the powers that could be used each encounter or day. Perhaps nerfing the class powers to make them usable each round or encounter? I fear that will make them bland and then we will be looking at just cutting classes, if, say the rage ability just gives you +1 to hit and damage, or all you had was the reckless attack. Surely that could just be a fighter type. Some powers would be very powerful if usable all the time. Wildshape like in the movie seems like that. Not sure how to fix that. Maybe only have one animal you can turn into? Add ore as you level up? I did like 4e with monsters having cool powers like the PCs. A dragon with unlimited breath attacks is like the movie where Smaug is just using it as the only attack. Cool, yes, but would we then have to limit it as well? Or does the PC powers being unlimited balance that? Interesting things to think about. [/QUOTE]
