If you could pick only three house rules for your game, what would they be?

[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 1879317, member: 11300"] 1. Hit Point Rolls. You roll your HD, if you are unhappy with the result, roll the next die down, if you are unhappy with this, roll the next one down until you rolled a d4. What ever you roll on the d4 stays. You either accept a roll or roll the next one down if able. Nothing seems to annoy our group more than crappy HD rolls. 2. Multiclassing Rules Changing character classes often requires training. The amount varies by class as below: Change to: Time required: Fighter 1 month (0 if character is a barbarian, ranger, paladin). Barbarian 1 year, during which the player must abandon all trappings of civilisation (or 1 month if the character is a ranger or druid). Ranger 3 months (0 if the character is a barbarian or druid) Paladin 3 months (0 if the character is a cleric) ) – ex-paladins can return to paladinhood if their other class is a divine one (eg cleric, divine agent) Monk 1 year Wizard 2 years Sorcerer Player must begin as a sorcerer – cannot become one later in career. Rogue 1 month (0 if the character is a bard) Bard 3 months (1 month if the character is a sorcerer or rogue) Cleric 1 month (0 if the character is a paladin) Druid 3 months (1 month if the character is a ranger or barbarian) Prestige Class Special – dependant on class prerequisites. 3. Raise Dead, Resurrection and True Resurrection are removed from the Cleric's spell list. The ability to grant a soul passage back to the mortal realm is the province of the gods. Only a deity may do this. This requires the Miracle Spell - at a cost of 5000XP - as the casters prayer to their deity to directly intercede. The Druid's Reincarnate stands. An anomaly but an interesting and flavourful one. A Wish or Miracle can change the character back to their former semblance as per book. and 4. Everything else is by the book.
