What new rules did you like?

[Andor]

We've been told that a lot of the new rules released over the last couple of years has been 'feeler' rules for 4e ideas. Which of the recently released stuff tickles you fancy? What do you hate?

Stances & Maneuvers. Love them.

New monster stat blocks which obfuscate re-rolling their HP. Hate them.

I'm dreading Maneuvers.

Brain fart...where are Devotion feats found?

No wonder I forgot them.

Thanks!

They are actually Domain feats, but they have Devotion in their name.

They are actually Domain feats, but they have Devotion in their nmae.

Indeed. I thought I'd catalogued all the feats by type, and didn't see "Devotion feats".

I hate Divine feats. HATE HATE HATE.

1/ Clerics don't need a power-up. Maybe Paladins do, that's debatable. But not Clerics.

2/ Turn Undead is a class feature that needs to die (permanently, and never be re-animated). It's not a class feature that needs more cruft hanging off of it.

3/ All the times that a Cleric isn't supposed to steal the spotlight? Hey, let's make it so the Cleric can steal the spotlight then, too! It's like making a feat which allows a Rogue to add his Trap Sense bonus to saves and AC whenever there's not a trap. Bleah.

Feh, -- N

I like divine feats because I don't like turn undead. I'm hoping that 4e will take the idea and run with it, giving a generic name to the resource consumed and making turn undead just one of various abilities a cleric can take to spend that resource on.

On further thought, domain feats might be closer to what I have in mind, although I don't have Complete Champion and so don't really know.
