[QUOTE="Vrylakos, post: 315511, member: 436"] Hello: I've been trying to generate a 10th level monk in E-Tools. I've user-entered the stats. I then go look at his skills, and I wanted to trade a few ranks around (he's supposed to be 55 years old and blind, so I wanted to increase his 'listen' skill ranks). I figure I'll take some out of Hide. Well, ET lets me take two ranks out, and no more. At some level, the ranks are 'locked in'. Is there a way around this? Second problem: I'm making a Medusa Bard 5. I note that she has "Weapon Focus: Longsword" in her Medusa stats. However, I've got her using a rapier in her Bard stats. I would have thought that I could edit the Medusa's feats a bit more, but they also seem to be 'locked in': I can't trade the WF: Lsword for WF: Rapier, or even WF: Snakes. Is there a way around this? And if not, shouldn't there be? It just seems to me that the E-Tools program is very inflexible in places. It might be my unfamiliarity with the program, however. I want to like E-Tools, but it seems less useful to me after tinkering with it a bit. I want more customisation than what it currently provides. Is anyone else finding this? Is there a chance that Fluid will address this "locked stats" issue (if indeed it is an issue and I'm not just missing a way around it)? VRYLAKOS [/QUOTE]
