[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 6253075, member: 67338"] Ok, so I am pretty vocal about my lack of liking pathfinder, but one of my Saturday DMs wants to give it another try. He emailed me to see if these house rules would make me like the system better... He said he would work with me and another player since we are both not found of the game, so I am here getting some thoughts. House rules proposed: 1)Different characters will use different xp advancement, FULL caster will use the slow chart, half caster the medium chart and non casters the fast chart. This will be based on your concept not changing every level.
