[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 339483, member: 765"] It is the only class that gets bonus feats right off the bat. You have to wait 5 levels for a WIZ(and those are really restricted), some of the PrCs also, but again usually you have to take a couple levels to get to them and by then you'd have been better off staying where you were. Youre right, for some reason I thought it was level+CON. For the feats I say, YET. As it is, a BRB will run out of feats to take at around, what 35th level? From then on he is gaining no benefit from being a Brb. Is that a problem with MC or with the lack of any definitive class progressions? [b][/b] I view BRB as an alternate RNG. No spells, better offense. Shock Troops compared to Special Forces. You picked the weakest skill of those 4, Bumping up Listen, Wilderness Lore and Intimidate all give [i]Epic[/i] benefits. Climb is really narrow focus and unless you have something to remove the limits Jump maxes out pre-epic, so youre left with Ride as a common skill. Yep, hes really good on a Horse, Lion, Bear, Dragon..... And chances are these type characters are going to MC into FTR pre-epic, you have to to get that 4th attack. Thats a problem, but its a problem with MC and the Epic rules moreso than the Epic FTR. Because unless you are gaining bonus "epic" feats at levels 21+ youre going to be falling farther and farther behind those that are. I'd say the ELH rewards classes with bonus feats. You dont have to stay a path, you just have to min/max as many feats as you can get your hands on. Which penalizes any FTR-type without FTR levels and nearly invalidates any MC combination that doesnt include FTR. [/QUOTE]
