[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 4290918, member: 5889"] Yep, a -1 to DC should get you straightened out. I would love some feedback on how 8 character parties handle with my system. The baseline is 5, and I made allowances for larger and smaller parties but that math gets fuzzier, so feel free to let me know how it goes! Many people are asking about XP. From a strict number of roll perspective, my complexities tend to equal WOTC's. So 1 = 1, 2=2, 3=3, etc. However, my system allows party members to spend more resources. I would go with Complexity 1 = WOTC Complexity 1. Complexity 2 = WOTC Complexity 3. Complexity 3 = WOTC Complexity 4. Also, a question was asked about the 80% win rate. If the party is at 62%, these are the win rates: Complexitiy 1: 84% 2: 80% 3: 78% +1 DC 1: 79% 2: 73% 3: 69% -1 DC 1: 89% 2: 87% 3: 85% Subject to change slightly for guys with higher or lower bonuses, but in general they shouldn't move much. These numbers do not factor in any heroic surges, so a party that utilizes surges can bump that number up. On to the question of Skill Challenges in combat, I think they would absolutely work. As mentioned before, a level 4, complexity 1 challenge should represent 1 level 4 monster....assuming that WOTC is correct about a complexity 1 challenge being equal to a single monster. [/QUOTE]
