[QUOTE="Eluvan, post: 1845801, member: 24812"] Well, actually even ranger would still be acceptable if it was played as a hunter/stalker kind of ranger. That would be no problem at all. Bear in mind that I'm not trying to kill your options and say 'No! No Rangers, we already have one!'. I just don't want two characters with exactly the same area of expertise. That's reasonable isn't it? Everybody needs a time to shine, and the game suffers if two people are fighting over the same moments in the spotlight. Please try to understand where I'm coming from, I don't want to turn this into a chore for you. Synchronicity: Well, if there's a game mechanic obstructing your concept, we have a problem. So, here you go: [b][size=3]Prodigy[/size][/b] [General] Your natural capacity for learning new things is even greater than most of your kind. You grasp new concepts and ideas with incredible acuity. [b]Prerequisites:[/b] Int 13, Human [b]Benefit:[/b] You gain four additonal skill points at first level. At each additional level you gain one additional skill point. [b]Special[/b] This feat can only be taken at first level. That suit? It's pretty well balanced I think - powerful, yes, but not extraordinarily so and the PgtF has already set a precedent for feats that can only be taken at first level being considerably more powerful. It seems to me that it compares quite well to something like Improved Toughness, especially as it is only contributing further to something Humans already get. It doesn't seem like a feat that everybody is going to want to jump on, so it should be balanced. If anyone disagrees feel free to make your case - otherwise, Synchronicity, feel free to take that and drop your Int by a point or two, whatever suits the concept. [/QUOTE]
