But I have a general Idea what a class is, what it does, what the difference between class end race is (there are games that don't make the distinction, even D&D was like that once upon a time), I know the purpose of Feats in general. So you don't have to tell me the difference between class, race, and "Hero Type", or what a Proficiency is opposed to a Skill or Feat.Yes. I'm complaining about the math. Sure, it is not not unsolvable to mentally reverse gears twice in the process of determining success or failure, but it isn't necessary, for we can have it far easier. But you are a genius, of course. You laugh at us mere mortals who use calculators or programs like Excel or Maple for difficult calculations. If you had you way, the attack roll would be (1d%) * sin THAC0 against the integral of the target's Defense Funcion <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />Yes, we bow our heads in shame, great Master. We won't return until we are Professor of Mathematics and if I see another Powergamer who hasn't studied Theory of Probabilities, I'll smite him in Your Name.No, seriously, the "It's not an insult, but you're a (insert expletive here)" routine always fails. Trolls use it so often that everyone has seen behind it by now. Making something easier is a good thing if it was unnecessarily compicated. And the ups-and-downs of AD&D were just that. Now, Skills and Feats are a significant change. As is the improvement of the bonus system. And don't forget that Multiclassing was changed. The way ability scores work were changed (from those unnecessary tables to a formula that can easily be calculated ). XP Awards and XP needed were changed (and unified, so you don't have several XP tables, only one). Classes were changed, the spell system was tweaked. Saving Throws were changed (they depend on your ability scores now, and they now have different difficulties, so a archmage's fireball is harder to resist than a apprentice's) and are are more logical now.In fact, a lot of unnecessarily complicated things were done away withI doubt you hate it.It is redone from scratch, we didn't say that. But it was massively reworked and on first look, AD&D and d20 are two different systems, albeit related ones.Yea, this is the thing that made it clear for me. You're a troll. Not a droll one, though, but you're not a complete beginner. I like it how you build up the post count so it isn't clear at once, and you refrain from using gross spelling errors or "1337 script". With a little experience, you could be one of the big ones. Cheers</blockquote>
