[QUOTE="Sylrae, post: 4389840, member: 48520"] Few games go all the way up to 20, let alone past 20. In alot of games, once thy hit 20, there may be no epic. the idea. if you train to acolyte, then pick up a new school, you do acolyte again. then you work your way up. so at 18, youd be master. and thats in both schools. however, at each rank uppage, you would still only get ONE ability, but you could pick from either school. Thats basically what I was talking about. And a feat to take an extra monk ability would be cool. Sortof yeah. both schools advance, and then you get to pick one of the abilities from either list. Alrighty. I would assume an initiate has just been initiated, and an acolyte was initiated a while ago but is still low ranked. You could also allow the option to dump an individual feat to grab an ability from any other school up to your rank. The idea is you dont have multiple ranks for each school, you have one rank overall. so picking up a new school completely and doing 2 of them would just make you repeat one to stop it from being overpowered. and then, you could allow some other sort of penalty to completely convert from one school to another. This would be a smaller penalty, but they would never be able to take new abilities from their original school. I think Ideally you would allow all three methods of cross schooling. Then you can dabble, advance in 2, or change to a new style completely. [/QUOTE]
