Message: <blockquote data-quote="Anubis" data-source="post: 279365" data-attributes="member: 2358">In all honestly, I think at least half of all fighters would still prefer the Power Attack line and the Expertise line to this new Toughness line, but at least this makes the Toughness line worthwhile.So THAT'S what the asterisks mean!  I see that now!  Indeed, for this House Rule to be balanced, NONE of the Toughness feats can be fighter bonus feats!  So yes, that is another change.  Thank you for pointing that out.Isn't that the point of some feats?  Ambidexterity, Two-Weapon Fighting, Improved Two-Weapon Fighting, Greater Two-Weapon Fighting, and Perfect Two-Weapon Fighting take away the disadvantage of havig penalties and few attacks with two weapons in exchange for five feats, so I see nothing wrong with spending five to seven feats on eliminating the hp disadvantage, especially considering that the lesser hp classes have SO MANY valuable feats to choose from . . . Not to mention the fact that all of the classes with those lesser hp disadvantages will be in Epic Levels before meeting the Base Fort save prerequisites for these feats to begin with . . .Basically, the balance is in the prerequisites.  The prerequisites are quite strict, really.  As it stands, only fighters can take these feats easily and without losing too many valuable feats, and to my knowledge, very few handlers play a fighter their whole career without taking a Prestige Class in the first ten levels, especially Weapon Master.Anyway, I hope that explains the position a bit better.  So what do you think now?  Balanced?</blockquote>
