Message: <blockquote data-quote="Arkhandus" data-source="post: 3666621" data-attributes="member: 13966">There's a horrible, HORRIBLE variant for Samurai to pay XP instead of making wealth sacrifices to the ancestors, in the Rokugan book by AEG.I say it's HORRIBLE because it's HORRIBLY BROKEN.  You pay a piddly amount of XP for the daisho enhancements with that variant.  It's absurd.This is the compromise version I came up with for a player in my Rhunaria campaign.  I don't think merely sacrificing XP would be quite appropriate anyway for the way the Samurai is written, but I dunno.  You have to respect the ancestors, yo! <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/nervous.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":heh:" title="Nervous Laugh    :heh:" data-shortname=":heh:" />  And that means taking care of the family shrines sometimes.Minimum...........Total........Total GP..............TotalSamurai.............XP..........Value Of..........EnhancementClass Level.......Cost........Sacrifices...........Equivalent4th...................60.............750...................+17th...................240...........3,000................+29th...................480...........6,750................+311th.................960...........12,000...............+413th.................1,500........18,750...............+514th.................2,160........27,000...............+6*15th.................3,090........36,750...............+7*16th.................3,840........48,000...............+8*17th.................4,860........60,750...............+9*18th.................6,000........75,000...............+10**Actual enhancement bonus cannot exceed +5And I was probably still too generous in lowering the GP cost for the amount of XP cost I required.  But Rhunaria has less wealth than standard settings, which I think is the only reason I didn't increase the costs a bit beyond this.</blockquote>
