[QUOTE="Sylrae, post: 4843888, member: 48520"] I came up with a fix for Saves and Multiclassing. It's based on the regular system for determining saves (specifically the bad save), but doesnt allow the exploit of the level 1 +2 bump. Regular System: 1/3*level = Bad Saves 1/2*level+2 = Good Saves 5/12*level+1 = Medium Saves I made medium saves as directly halfway between the two, for use in the regular system. this gives totals of 6.67, 9.33, and 12.00 at level 20. My New System - based on the old bad-save total: 1/3*level = Bad Saves 2/3*level = Good Saves 1/2*level = Medium Saves Again, medium is directly between the two. this gives totals of 6.67, 10, and 13.33 at level 20. I also have 2 other tweaks in case someone doesnt like the increase from 12.00 to 13.33 for good saves. Based on the old good-save total: 3/10*level = Bad Saves 6/10*level = Good Saves 9/20*level = Medium Saves this gives totals of 6.00, 9.00, and 12.00 at 20 and finally Based on the old good AND bad save totals: 1/3*level = Bad Saves 6/10*level = Good Saves 7/15*level = Medium Saves this gives totals of 6.67, 9.33, and 12.00 at 20. As you can see, this gives the most similar results you'll get to the original system, though I prefer the cleaner fractions of 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3. Feel free to comment or use any of these three alternate systems. [/QUOTE]
