[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7825381, member: 82504"] There is rather no such thing as level in myths and legends the statement is nonsensical bud. It is a game tool measuring capability ... if all it measures is part of ability it really does have no value on its own if you still have to measure something else on top of that. And if you go to the point of analysing the characters able to deal with something big and awesome you will find ahem... regardless of whether one gets the ability one way because of Excalibur or the other does it because he is Bound in Oths and super human grades of Discipline. They are comparable. Arthur indeed has Excalibur and Lancelot has the Other (and weapons nobody remembers the names of) Myth and legend support the 4e model just fine. Does myth and legend feature adventuring side by side with other heros who suddenly make huge bumps in power... or does everyone get a cascade of them (which may not be so sudden more like levelling up) Do we see big adventures by Arthur before and after Excalibur in a team? Actually not until After Excalibur do we have Arthur and his team doing things (early in legend on we had Arthur and the Irishman - who is potentially an early early (Lugh Lamfada) who later goes from llewc Luanleawk in Welsh to a later Lancelot) [/QUOTE]
