[QUOTE="sheadunne, post: 6150959, member: 27570"] I agree, I just find the cost a little skewed across the classes. I always wondered why, if the game was focused on three tiers, that classes weren't necessarily built to support it. It bugged me when when I was looking at the 5e playtest documents. Why not give each class a class ability choice at each third level on one tier. That way, a class isn't making choices between combat feats and non-combat feats, but between various options in each tier. (Not that I'm convinced of the tier system, but it just seemed odd). Fighter Level 1 - Choice of Combat Feats Level 2 - Choice of Exploration Feats Level 3 - Choice of Social Feats Rinse and repeat Wizard Level 1 - Choice of Exploration Spells Level 2 - Choice of Combat Spells Level 3 - Choice of Social Spells Rinse and repeat Bard Level 1 - Choice of Social Abilities Level 2 - Choice of Exploration Abilities Level 3 - Choice of Combat Abilities Rinse and repeat I just thought it was odd that they put some much emphasis on the three tiers and then didn't bake them into the classes. Oh well. [/QUOTE]
