The point is that you email both CS _and_ Skip, that way, not only do you get a (generally) edjucated response from Skip, but you also get a (generally) laughable reply from CS! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Well, the more I look at those feats, and their requirements, I can't help but think they _should_ be based on character level, as written, in the first place. The reason being is just consider how much you have to give up to nab those feats. By the time you qualify, they should be worth something. Look at it like this. Say there's a feat that adds 1 point of fire damage with an unarmed attack that allows a Fort save with a DC of 10 to negate the fire damage. Let's say it has a BAB requirement of +5. Now, let's say there's another feat that has a BAB requirement of +15, and this one adds +1d6 of fire damage with an unarmed attack that allows a Fort save the same as the previous. Well, by the time you're a 15th level character, that Fort save is way to easy to succeed at, so it simply has to be better. No two ways about it. Otherwise, it just isn't worth taking.Basically, I'm starting to think that maybe the intent of those feats really is to base the DC off of character level, regardless of whether or not you're a monk.  That way, even if you _are_ a multiclassed monk, the DC will be high enough to make the feat worth taking.</blockquote>
