Powers are more user-friendly than feats because they contain all needed data in the block or card, and does not require much cross-referencing.That's why I hoped for a sword-and-board build, complete with the usual dedicated list of powers . The DM just need to ask the newbie player: "you want to play a fighter? Good. What kind? A weapon in each hand? A big double sword? Or sword and shield? Ok, these are your powers, you don't need anything else. Now we can play".Min-maxing is good only for second time players. Pre-gens are good for newbies. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
