Proposal: Allow swapping of new racial features from Essentials update.

[CaBaNa]

nifty idea with the tinyurl for your characters... I may steal that.

So what happens with item rarity then?

 

[Walking Dad]

was that September errata, or was that "This errata, coming soon..."

If that was errata, we need to address item rarity as a community.

As I already said, the essential changes are part of the new Compiled Errata pdf, so WotC says they are official.

No judge, but I'm not sure I like the new rarity rules... sure, we could change L4W, that only common items are available now, but how would this effect higher level character creation? Should there be a hard limit, how many 'rare' items a character is allowed to have?

In a move that I predict will shock no one, I am less inclined toward the item rarity rules. I also think it'd be difficult to start higher level characters or spend time gold. I think item rarity rules work best when one DM controls one set of players for one game: something generally unlike what we have here.

I'm thinking this is a bit of a thread derail, however, so maybe another proposal should be made to address that? Or maybe just to address whether or not the September "update" was errata or no?

There is a hard limit, 1 rare/tier IIRC

The new rarity rules don't seem to work well for PbP as it pretty much defeats the purpose of time gold as you end up with a giant pile of gold that you can't use. Heck, Kane's got over 3k gold and counting.
