[QUOTE="MwaO, post: 7519299, member: 12749"] Bounded Accuracy doesn't exist. 5e is 4e/2 math, just with a lot of smoke and mirrors to make it difficult to figure out. If you would get a +4 to hit in 4e from leveling up in 4e total due to everything, you ought to get a +2 to hit in 5e due to everything. If you would be expected get +12 to skills in 4e, you'll get +6 in 5e. You just have less certainty about when and how it might happen. Examples: A 1st level 5e PC likely has a +5 in their best skills. Over 19 levels, goes up to +11. That's +6. 1st level 4e PC likely has a +9 in their best skill. Over 19 levels, goes up to +21. That's +12. 1st level 5e PC likely has +5 to hit. Over 19 levels, they get +2 from stat, [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?437937-Magic-Item-Math-of-5e"]+3 from magic weapon[/URL], +4 from proficiency or +9. 1st level 4e PC likely has a +7 to hit.
