:I'd like you to consider using fractional hp. My guess as to present calc would be 0.7 yielding d4=2.8, d6=4.2, d8=5.6, d10=7, d12=8.4 My vote would go for 5/8ths=0.625 Nothing wrong with a little more math. --[[User:Arz|Arz]] 17:54, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Is it possible to start with a stat below 8? If so, just make it below 8 or would there be a point return? --[[User:Askewnotion|Askewnotion]] 23:53, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

*As to Revising Characters; the level swap out that the group is going to make on reaching lvl4&5 feels kinda like a double levelup. Could we break this up with class swaps at levelup midpoints? Assuming 6 sessions to levelup, it breaks-down to; session4=swap, session6=levelup, session10=swap, session13=levelup. This should even out the levelup curve and significantly benefit casters in the group.

Exotic weapons from various sources? Exotic armors from the same? --Mqs 23:40, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I considered using The Sharp Edge for a while, but decided not to start the campaign off that way. ;-) And no fractional HP. --Randy (Talk) 18:25, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Proposed fractional hp because I never cared for lrc's mathematical improbability as die type rose. Also you should change your title to Dungeon Mother in honor of the holiday. --Arz 19:53, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

  • As to Revising Characters; the level swap out that the group is going to make on reaching lvl4&5 feels kinda like a double levelup. Could we break this up with class swaps at levelup midpoints? Assuming 6 sessions to levelup, it breaks-down to; session4=swap, session6=levelup, session10=swap, session13=levelup. This should even out the levelup curve and significantly benefit casters in the group.
