Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greg K" data-source="post: 5037472" data-attributes="member: 5038">My starting list (The following was actually in my pre-3e questionaire/feedback):1. Fewer Absolutes2. AC goes up not down3. 3 save categories as per 3e4. 3e unified ability score bonus progression5. Extend abilty scores past 256. No exceptional strength7. all characters receive the same ability score modifier if they have the appropriate ability modifier8. Constitution bonus only factors into hit points once rather than each level9. Remove System shock and ressurection.  Use Con checks or saving throw instead10. More starting hit points11. Humans get +2 to one ability score of their choice12. Remove the non-biological racial abilities and make them proficiencies/skills the player must choose to take13. Racial save bonuses:  use a set number14. No demi human level limits15. any race can multiclass16. UA Barbarian is replaced by David Howery's rewrite from Dragon 14817. UA Cavalier is replaced by David Howery's rewrite from Dragon 14818. 2e specialty priests are default19. Specialist Wizards have their own spell lists20. a unified skill system (Personally, I do like the 3e skill system)21. a complete overhaul of unarmed combat: Drop the pummelling/grappling charts of 1e and the 2e unarmed to hit tables.  Characters should get a list of common maneuvers that they can try. Strike, Kick, Grab, Pin, disarm, choke, etc.22. PO: Combat and Tactics crit determination23. PO: Spells and Magic: spell point system24. Remove both automatic immunity and reduced spell affects based upon level or hit die. Reduced affects should be based upon how well or poorly a saving throw is made. 25. All spells should have some kind of saving throw if it directly harms another character mentally or physically.26. replace level drain with something else27. monsters get abiity scores and ac breakdown (I was happy to see this in 3.x)28. Seperate attack bonus from hit die29.  Rework Paladin's Detect Evil30.  Have an encumberance formula similar to GURPS.  each category has ST * (xlb)31.  Spellless class versions of the Bard and Ranger32.  Remove Psionics or completely redo the system33. add weapon specialization and weapon groups from Complete Fighter</blockquote>
