[QUOTE="Crimson Longinus, post: 9184791, member: 7025508"] I don't like this part as it is completely unconnected your athletic prowess. You can literally have no athletics skill and negative strength (dex warriors exist) and still have ability to endlessly autosucceed at DC 30 athletics checks. This part is fine, and would probably be fine if it was always on with all athletics checks. I think this is still bonkers and unfun. It would be the obvious go to tactic to give the fighter advantage and any other possible bonus and use to slay any powerful foe it can be used on. Generally I feel that one needs to be pretty careful with HP bypassing eliminations that can be used on powerful foes. It is no surprise that Banishment is often companied about. Such things easily become the boring tactic to always use, and makes any damage the other character could deal to the foe before such an elimination meaningless. It has the potential to destroy the fun and excitement of climatic battles that should be a big deal with an ebb and flow of combat to which everyone can contribute to. [/QUOTE]
