[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 7858154, member: 6801228"] I'm not sure if these abilities (which remove limits on some classes) remove limits on characters. For example, I had a game not too long ago where the party consisted mostly of rogues, a druid, and a ranger. If I had introduced the Wild Companion rule to that game, it would have changed the dynamic by giving the Druid a Familiar... but you could accomplish the same thing if one of the two rogues had decided to play a wizard instead. The class being able to cover more concepts does not neccesarily mean that the characters no longer have limitations, it just means that roles can be filled differently. And, just because you have an option doesn't mean you will end up using it. The Interception Fighting style is really cool for a Fighter to take on the role of defender more, but if I want to build a Fighter who is an agile duel-wielder, this Fighting Style doesn't offer me anything that I want, so I would choose the option I have always had.
