I can't find the 0.6 version on the site.

 

[EnglishScribe]

Very sorry about that, the correct version works now - forgot that the file names are case sensitive!

I can't reach your site, Lycos comes back with a 404, after I click on your link.

 

[EnglishScribe]

It appears to be back now.

There is also a mirror site at

insightpub.digitalrice.com

If anyone has any suggestions for a good host site, I'm all ears (in a non-vulcan kind of way).

I have a question --

The Daredevil has only one talent tree, but gain multiple talent selections. Using this class as my example -- it has only Adrenaline. Adrenaline has 7 selectable features, some of which stack with themselves (Damage Threshold).

Now -- can a character select a talent from trees he already has access to other than the ones for the class he gained the talent selection from? Say a Tough Hero has Daredevil... and gains a talent selection, but doesn't want something out of Adrenaline. Could he select something out of his Damage Reduction, Energy Resistance, or Unbreakable talent trees from Tough Hero?

Second Question --

Traditions, which sorta represent School Specialization (if I'm understanding their position in this document) are not mutually exclusive? One can take Necromantic Tradition, and then pick up Enchantment Tradition, and go on to pick up a few of these... It's just kinda difficult to swallow from a traditional, sacred-cow point of view, and I'm not sure if it's wholly balanced.


Third Question --

Why would someone with the option to take Scholastic/Scholary or Devotion Focus NOT take it? They basically provides the biggest spell lists for your buck.
