[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 6345260, member: 996"] Nod. 'Trap' choices are a sign of a poorly-balanced game, yes. I suppose a 'better' way of handling Resilient might be that it boosts a pair of Save: CON/STR, DEX/INT or WIS/CHA, at the option of the character taking it. Honestly, as 'big' as feats are supposed to be, and as barely-adequate as proficiency with a save is as a defense, even that's not too impressive. I suppose, to keep the feat from 'punishing' certain classes, it could even be choose one save from CON, DEX, or WIS, and one from STR, INT, or CHA. So, just like classes, so far, seem to have one 'real' and one 'rare' save proficiency, the feat would double that. Take the feat twice, and you have proficiency in all saves, and are no longer at a severe disadvantage on some of them. Mind you, proficiency in all saves just gives you a baseline 'fair' chance of making a save forced by a same-level caster or equivalent monster (or other danger with similar DC), if it's one of your best stats. Even a save with proficiency, if it's a low stat, is going to be hard to make. [/QUOTE]
