[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7615325, member: 82504"] Correct and in 5e the numbers are not reflecting the flavor text they stole that flavor text from 4e but let mechanics which supported it? dribble off and one of those is progressive ability. Leveling up is measuring some really broad vague stuff according to the fluff in both games you are not even the same order of being it really is in the flavor text to match the person you are at level 26 ie is walking in god stuff. Most epic characters are becoming demigods and gods chosen ones and so on and paragon is even working towards that.... and one general way of putting that measure in to the mechanics is by putting on a general competence rating so that I get better because of confidence and breadth of knowledge not just focus. To me its just innadequate failure of mechanics to match intent. Oh but casters they get progressive ability up the wazoo with more and more spells learned due to vancian some I have read having very broad impact.... but skill users nope. Because remember 5e is backwards "friendly". [/QUOTE]
