yeah, if we are talking about a single roll for a thing. a lucky punch or similar. what if it's extensive competition? let's say arm wrestling? and you need 3 won opposite rolls in a row to win? 8 vs 20 STR now drops into 1,5% chance of happening. and more the extended competition is, more is...

yes and no. if you have a bunch of "fighters" with 8 STR and a group of fighters with 16 STR and they both try to defeat a sane enemy, Sack of HP of 120 and average AC of 15 1st group has attack of +1 and damage(good ol longsword) of 1d8-1 that is 35% hit rate with average damage of 1,45 per...

agree. TWF style should be default. then if you take the style you can fight with non-light 1Handed weapons and treat any off hand weapon as you have Nick mastery on it instead of it's default mastery.

subclasses are just feat chains that are preselected for you.

So Startrek and Stargate were right.

for skills, we prefer 3d6. it's few rolls that can have dire consequences, attacks and saves are rolled 50+ time per combat, so it evens out a little. but, I do prefer "d12+4" instead of d20. you still roll only 1 dice, so advantage/disadvantage works, average stays the same(10,5) and we do get...

If you allow opportunity attacks on "allies" then it's a good feat. might get to squeeze in a cure spell or two during combat outside your turn.

No news, but I would keep it simple. 3rd level: proficiency with all weapons and treat all weapons as Monk weapons fighting style 2 weapon masteries kensei shot(based on martial arts die) 6th level: weapons can deal force damage instead of normal type for them. spend 1 point to deal extra...

It's a damage spell that uses Concentration. And puts you in melee range. And burns additional slots for damage dealing in most of the builds. It's a win-win for every DM that a player is using that. Even the original version.

This is the early draft. there is allegedly newer out there, but didn't find it. Yet.

Rare, sometimes blue. I can also steal medium rare from others plate to try :p

I actually like Vicious weapons the best. With following bounded accuracy design goal, they work better than +X items Hence the following house ruled items. Magic weapons: Common: +1 damage Uncommon: +1d6 damage Rare: +2d6 damage Very rare: +3d6 damage Legendary: +4d6 damage Magic armor...
