[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8403018, member: 6855114"] Hard to do quotes on a phone. So I will go this way. 1) this is what average are for bi or tri or even quadri modal just make a stranger average with a bigger standard deviation. Just one average is more usually more than enough, but I see your point. It would be more interesting to see in which environment the average applies. 2) If people would read the DMG it would be a great benefit for us all. A lot of advice in there are quite useful, but they went quite light in the explanation département as to why a set number of encounters is required for balance. Short rests classes need short rest but nova classes need long rest. The last are very prone to nova and a higher number of encounters puts them on par with the short rests ones. 3) 4ed had a lot of good things going for it. I was a fan, but it was not the case of everybody... It did have its downsides though... 4) Feats are optional but I have yet to see a table where they are not used at all. And yet, I still see quite a few Bards taking feats (well, one and that is usually inspiring leader). As for the cleric s, a lot takes feats but I have seen very few war clerics.... [/QUOTE]
