In the prerequisites for these feats are: Wis 12+, Cha 10+, Cha 12+, and again Cha 12+. This breaks the design "rule" of having ability score prerequisites be odd numbers.In the article "Faith and Honor" by Skip Williams, I see some more new feats. In the prerequisites for these feats are several instances of Charisma 13. Not "13+", but just "13". Now if the above mistakes were just in one place, it would be obvious as a simple and forgivable typo. But when the same thing is repeated 4 or 5 times in the same list of feats, you have to wonder if it was intentional, or if someone just is not paying attention.If it was intentional, that means someone is tossing aside the core design rules of D&D3.If it is just lack of attention, will such detail be overlooked in the coming revision.And since my Dragon magazine has that little note of "100% Official Dungeons & Dragons" on the cover, it makes me doubt the accuracy and design of the coming D&D 3.5 revision.It just worries me. I hate to think that in revising and correcting the current game system, someone is going to flub things up even more by ignoring solid design rules or by lack of attention to detail. Is this a view of things to come?Quasqueton</blockquote>
