Not all of them make sense, whether the reason is crunch or fluff, Martial characters do not have any ranged attacks that are not ranged weapons (though I suppose that's something that I could change to try and make it fit...) <br /><br />Hmm... maybe that's just another hurdle... you could make a divine MacGuffenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13765042859547483538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1105703191531794385.post-80964305675422545612009-05-04T08:03:00.000-07:002009-05-04T08:03:00.000-07:00I like the idea of being able to choose power sour...I like the idea of being able to choose power sources, but for some classes I fail to see how it could work. Take the Paladin for instance, if his power source were Arcana rather than Divine, what would make him a Paladin? Would he not just be a strong Wizard? Or a Cleric that has a Martial power source rather than Divine? What then makes him different than a Monk, and how does he still do his Erik Billecihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03170374338103624244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1105703191531794385.post-18088255503216178022009-05-03T09:20:00.000-07:002009-05-03T09:20:00.000-07:00I don't want this to be just another feat, I want ...I don't want this to be just another feat, I want it to be an alternate version of the class. So that if you want to be a bard powered by your deity, a monk powered by arcane magics, a barbarian powered by your own martial strength, then you can be, and have the mechanics reflect this. <br /><br />Though choosing what feats still work could be tricky...

Martial comes to mind when i think about this, since there are so many martial feats that are exclusive to martial classes, but there are others as well. Would you rework it so that these feats are available to the character even though he changed his power source, or would you Greg(ory) Senpaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01137328793556744138noreply@blogger.com
