[QUOTE="mellored, post: 7403274, member: 6801209"] That could work. Not sure about the skill/save point buy though. That didn't seem to work well in 3e, as everyone just picked a few key skills and maxed them. Not much different than the maxing ability scores. I actually kind of liked 4e's skill method of just a flat bonus. So... Remove ability scores. Any non-skill and non-save reference to an ability score is now +3 (to-hit, damage, DC's, paladin aura's, ect...) Skills and Saves are replaced with... Base = +1/2 proficeny bonus (1 - 3) Proficiency = +4 (5-7) Expertise = +8 (9-11) Jack-of-all-trades = +2 on non-proficent skills. New Feat: MOAR POWER: Choose one of the following. You can take this feat more than once, but unless noted, you must choose a different option each time. *+1 to-hit, damage, and DC's, You can take this twice. *+2 to your base AC, upto a maximum of 20. (Not including shield, magic, or other buffs). *+2 to paladin's aura (Prerequisite, paladin 6) *+2 to bardic inspiration dice. (Prerequisite, bard) *+2 to casting modifier. *+3 to spells known or memorized. *+3 to inititive. (And similar for whatever else). [/QUOTE]
