[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8272871, member: 93670"] I've tried that kind of stuff a few times, but it tends to run into the problem of not having many hooks to attach minor effects onto so they either fall into complete trash never used once something better is obtained, absurdly overpowered after adding this other thing you didn't predict through feat/mc*, & tcoe style spells with chicken legs nobody cares about. * Yea that was a risk in any edition, but there's a big difference between you have an extra point in your crit range under these conditions or your ACP/ASF is reduced under these conditions and "here is this completely new ability you wrote whole cloth to bolt onto a system with no room for subjectivity & nuance" Not having body slots & slot affinity as an alternative to # general attune slots also raises the difficulty too since there is less room to tinker with limits.
