If we had played much higher into the levels though, it would have gotten ridiculous. AC in particular is almost exclusively dependent on magical items, which would make high level combat a matter of rolling high initiative and Power Attacking. Not fun.This isn't the house rule forum, but <a href="https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0B13rBX1CAB0XNzgyZWEyZDItYzg1OS00MTJkLTg0NjUtMWUwMWNhYzBjODgx&hl=en" target="_blank">this</a> is my Tome of House Rules. The very last two pages describe how to grant the big six bonuses as inherent level-based bonuses -- I wrote them during my final days as a 3e DM, when I was finally fed up with the big six and WBL. It's the only satisfying solution I've ever seen, to toot my own horn quite frankly. <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=";)" /></blockquote>
