[QUOTE="Flamestrike, post: 6975435, member: 6788736"] They dont see much love in my game. Although the PCs have been struggling with lack of languages lately. Some half feat ideas would be (retain all the current half feats) and strip -5/+10 to GWM (+1 Str), strip the bonus action attack from PAM (+1 Str) strip the -5/+10 from sharpshooter (+1 dex) and add a bonus action ranged attack 'cleave' option instead of the ignore cover, an 'Expertise' feat that doubles your prof bonus in a skill (and gives you +1 to the relevant stat). Lucky gets nerfed to one re-roll and +1 to any stat. Martial adept gets a flat +1 to Str or Dex. Shield master loses the bonus action shove, but gains +1 to Str or Dex. The caster feats (ritual caster, elemental adept and magic adept) get you +1 to Int, Wis or Cha. Charger gets you a bonus action dash and +1 Str, Con or Dex. Savage attacker is just beyond repair. You would need to boost two handers a bit to compensate and make heavy and versatile str builds worth it. Maybe have a weapon wielded in two hands doing Str x 1.5 like in 3.5 (round down). Id also allow two weapon fighting with a single light weapon and another weapon of choice. [/QUOTE]
