[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 9524541, member: 6801299"] How it should it be? I mean, even feats that in theory should work about the same, are not on same power level. Situation is much better than 2014 and there is probably no really big outliers in feats, on either side. OK, +2 HP per level origin feat might be little on the strong side, especially on lower HD classes or barbarian as it is +4 HP per level most of the time. personally I would like that all feats scale with level or proficiency bonus somehow, so they are valuable to take at 1st level and at 16th level. Fey/shadow touched is great at 4th level, not so much at 16th level. Maybe if you get extra use of 1st level spell at 8th level and extra use of 2nd level spell at 12th level it would be a good option even at 16th level. Also, if every class gets equal power budget for subclasses, which they do not, that would open up space as I mentioned for few universal subclasses. But, then some people would say we are getting too close to 4E in design philosophy and we can't have that. Even if we do have lots of base 4E features in 5E already. Disclaimer; overall not a fan of 4E, but it did have some good solutions. [/QUOTE]
