"The next step seems to be abandoning character classes altogether and buying class abilities with points as well." => This right here is WHY folks haven't... at least for D&D. D&D, for whatever reason, is terribly attached to their character classes. Other system ( GURPS) took the plunge decades ago. Backlash, be it perceived, expected, or actually experienced, has kind of retarded D&D & it's descendant games from going the same route. Plus, the strong dislike of feats a lot of players developed over the course of 3rd & 4th editions. There is a reason feats are *optional* rules in 5E. This system, and really ANY point-buy focused system, MUST go down the design route of feats or at least very feat-like things. If I'm sounding negative... let me be clear, I LOVE the idea, classes are the single biggest sticking point with me & D&D. But because it is also because my opinion is so divergent from the D&D norm that I know where the pain point is, and that is because a huge portion of the D&D player base actually like restrictive the pigeon-holing of rigid classes, as odd as that seems to the rest of us.

I'm planning on playing around with this system. But with more. Basically fully customizable race + class. With point buy stats built in. Basically you get an array of 8 in all your stats, +3 ASI, a basic d6 hit die, A set of weapon proficiencies and spell casting at level 3(you can give up spellcast at level 3 or weapon proficiencies, in exchange for more points, but they are permanent give ups)

​@@TheDungeonCoach Thanks. I'm going to do a weaken version, just race customization. For one of my campaigns to help test it out. All the players will be the same race and this allows for flavor, and I'll probably add some extra stuff for homebrew/world reasons reasons. Basically, 8 in stat Array, +4 for ASI(custom half-elves), and some extra spellcasting/fighing, along with ASIs during character level not class level(they'll still do standard classes, just no ASIs through class) Thus ASIs at 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 19.

Finally! I'm glad a major KZreadr has finally done something like this. One of the biggest things I dislike about 5e is their feat system. All they did was take away feats being free, made them in exchange for ability score increases, mostly combined feats to make them more powerful and even many of the feats also give an ability score increase... And they took out a ton of them. The only other thing I'd like is make a bunch of feats that are race specific. Pathfinder 2e has some but there aren't very many and some of the options I don't like very much or are copies of other abilities but at least it's a start.

I feel like this is what 5e needed and this may very well be on the table in the next iteration of the game. I've been doing something like this (ad hoc, no guidelines) for my players and they've really enjoyed it. I even let them change up their characters within reason, so over time some of them have given up abilities or feats in favor of other new ones (hint: this is a great way to have players invest in learning new skills and parting with some gold for people willing to teach them :) ). Also, think magic items that give you plusses to certain feats, or even let you use the feat once per day. Really looking forward to using your system!

Thank you for the inspiration. I let my players gather feats by letting them "practise". If they charge a lot, they don't get the -AC penalty. With lots of practise they can master charging. This inspiration I got from the Iron Heroes Variant Players Handbook. Like you I made a list of feats with training points.

@TheDungeonCoach

Oooooo yea! We sound very similar on that! Haha

I like this. ive been messing with a similar idea myself I called the trait system were there were positive and negative traits (which were basically the same as the feats you described you just did a better job). in character creation I was thinking on having the players start off as normal, but if they wished, they could take one or two negative traits to get some skill point they could invest into early feats. these negative traits could also be given to players by some form of roleplay moment in game if they wished to turn it into a negative trait. (such as a character loosing their hearing from an explosion, and the player choosing to keep the trait for both rp and feat skills). I like some of your ideas though, and would for my games probably change it so your race starts with its normal abilities, but you can remove certain ones in exchange for skill points. so a trifling would normally have dark vision, but you could choose to exchange it and get an agile tail feat for example I also like the every level a player gets one skill point idea and am probably gonna steal that lol

@lecomingbegend497

Жыл бұрын

I think you're method of negative feats and his could work well with a bit of tweaking... I'd have certain things restricted to particular races unless these players wanted to be a hybrid race. For example I wouldn't allow Dwarves, Gnomes, or Halfling to be a legacy magic class (Wizard, Sorcerer, Warlock). But if the Dwarf was the offspring of an Elf and Dwarf that would be fine, but most of the stats for their Dwarf would be an intermix that keeps most but negate some qualities of either race. They would be allowed to keep one or two as a sort of genetic trait that is rarely dominant (this would create opportunities if the characters ever had offspring of their own). I've never been a DM so I'm not sure if this would work

5:24 there's 2 ways I thought of instantly gaining bugbear arms while still making sense 1. You mutated kinda like the forced mutations from the deadpool movies or for a dnd example a simi hybrid like mutation 2. You are Blessed or cursed by someone

My Gruul barbarian was bitten by a radioactive spider, who turned out to be a radioactive druid... so now he's multiclassed. Jokes aside, I thought running an Ursala-inspired warlock patron this way. Your warlock player has the option to basically sell this hag their unwanted racial and class features in exchange for more power from their patron. I always though it was weird how your warlocks patron can't help them do tiny things like run a bit faster or take a hit. I really love this system; it's the perfect blend of Mutants and Masterminds with D&D.

I like flavor a lot in dnd and sometimes I’d see people multiclass but it wouldn’t make since as to how. Recently my dm gave us some down time as we traveled from an island to the mainland of the world. I multiclassed into fighter from being a caster class and flavored it by tying It into my back story and and getting back into shape by having a lot of the time on the boat working and I guess I’ll call it shadow dueling or practicing moments and techniques on sword fighting without the actual sword to explain why he can all of the sudden sword fight

We are playing shadowrun right now but awesome homebrew like this makes me wanna play d&d again!

I give my players a choice between a level, or a feat. We do a milestone level system with 24 milestones. So you can effectively be level 20 with 4 extra feats, or level 4 with 20 feats. I’ve yet to see that though, they do have to role play it out. We actually map our characters from milestones 1-24 as the DM I make folders for each to keep track, but mostly to build adventure based on each characters background and what they are aspiring to become at each milestone, and how to bring it all together so players have a vested interest in each other’s success. I also have them pick the magic items they want at each level, or want to see in the game. So I can actually see the power progress in advance, or item combo game breaking. As well as put the magic items into storyline with deliberate intent. I also have players make up an npc, one they get to play during the campaign. It could be anything or anyone they get to mini DM minor story arcs of their own. Only rule is no relatives of player characters, approved by the DM. This can be real fun with a group of FOREVER DM’s ;)

I do think the lack of opportunity attacks from mobile is by far the strongest part and should be worth more points, but that's the point of the system

for long limb, maybe it was a wild magic mutation or you got drawn for torture reasons, but after escaping you adapted to the changes to your arms and took advantage of it. This is great, really gives a GURPS feel.

In a similar vein as inspiration tokens, award a point whenever your players do something extravagant or just cool. Set your own standard for what award points. And when you get roughly 10 of those point, gain a +1 ability score Improvement. Set your own threshold for what earns points and how many points equal one ability score Improvement

Such a great idea I love this! Wish there was a way to implement this formally into the R20 system.

Here's a thought. What is really, really needed is a character generation game. One in which the whole point is creating a character. Maybe someone who is super dedicated to character generation material could find a way to "gamify" that. No need to actually play the character, just find a way to quantify and score character builds.

This is genius!!! Love it! Wanna get my claws on it!

Love the system! It makes character creation fun again! Rather than just maximizing efficiency through meta-gaming. You get to truly be what you want! I will add this system to my games! I also think that inspiration as a DM is underutilized and I think I will use inspiration for a way to reward my players and allow them to spend those points on this system, instead of them using it as advantage on a roll. Because even if the roll fails it is still a learning opportunity for their PC.

Love the guide, one feat that stood out to me was Shield attacker, a great ability for a Captain America inspired character. Any thoughts on having a feat that lets a character walk on four legs not only for increased mobility in the vein of a Centaur, but also letting the other party members ride said character like an animal mount?

WOAH what a chrazy idea! I love it! maybe have prerequisites like Powerful build and another "quadraped" feat or something they they need to do it. My question would be could they go back and forth from 2 legs to 4? Or MAKE a race that is always on all 4s, would be an interesting spell caster or druid even lol. But I would have some feat to allow riding, and maybe another feat for more points to upgrade it to NOT take 1/2 their movement speed ( could also use encumbrence rules that powerful build would help with too) Great Ideas, I hope that helped!

@@TheDungeonCoach It helped a lot, I am sure shifters could switch back and forth but when I came up with the question, the character would have 4 legs permanently. Something in vein of a Centaur or a sphinx. Although centaurs are considered the most famous sapien fantasy race that walks purely on 4 legs.

This looks like a good base for non fantasy games. I am thinking TMNT.

Question, since you mentioned something in the Magic related section that made me think of it. As an example in the Strixhaven sourcebook, the Witherbloom Student Background allows Wizards to gain some limited access to Healing Magic. With the existence of the Divine Soul Sorcerer and the Celestial Warlock, two existing Arcane class (one of which is a full caster like Wizard) that both have full access to Cleric's spell list, is there a point buy value to gain access to another Class's spell list you might not be able to gain RAW without potentially difficult multiclassing?

I could really use your help. Id love to create a class. Im not super knowledgeable about dnd 5e.

THAT is quite a BOLD task and one of the MOST difficult things to do. I would recommend building a subclass first and get a feel for balance and the game system you are building a class for

Hum, about constructed resilienc( warforged ability), 3 point is very far from what i think it should cost, if you compare with toxic constitution (2 point), resilient mind (1 point), resilient soul(1 point),trance (2 point) you are already at 6 point, and you still have the "don''t need to breath, eat, drink" and "You are immune to disease" part, even if worth 1 point each, the total is 8 ( and those 2 part would probably be worth 2 point each in my mind, making it 10 point)

Two questions, when is it hitting the DM Guild? And does it only cover creation or does it include all level advancement? Thanks

If you choose a Negative Ability @ an ASI (lvls 4, 8, 12, etc), do you get that 1 bonus feat point @ every ASI or just the 1 time you take the Negative Ability?

Does this work with 3.5 also? I am working on my own world and want to see if I can work this into it if you don't mind

So i tried to perchase this off the teespring link, and never got a download link. And there doesnt seem to be a way to contact DC.

I've been tempted to let my player's pick whatever feats they wanted, regardless of racial restrictions. (With the obvious exception of holding back feats that grant lv2+ spells for lv1 characters.)

The problem with point buy systems is that people will make broken characters to make a character that's overpowered in some way. My favorite example is a guy with 1 arm who hits insanely hard with his remaining arm. In your system, I expect that someone will pick Fireball at 1st level. And it doesn't even need to be a magic-user. The rogue might be nuking people. Fireball at 1st level is basically "I win this fight". I once ran a campaign with point buy ability scores, but I added an ability score called perception. So a couple players maxed their strength, constitution, and dexterity by dumping their other statistics. Someone convinced me to let his character dual wield long swords (which isn't actually legal for man-sized creatures in 2e). This character was dumber than a box of rocks but was attacking 3 times per round and had a huge strength bonus.

Is this gonna go up on DMs Guild or just the Patreon?

@TheDungeonCoach

It will be (unless I get my website up and running) but It’s $5 on Patreon and will be $10 on DM guild (they take a 50% cut) so Patreon is a win/ win for both of us I actually make a little less money from Patreon too since they do take 8%, but I wanna make it more accessible

So when will it be put to DM guild, and if so what will the price be set at, if you don't mind me asking?

It will be about a month (once this PDF goes off of Patreon, but it will be about $10 honestly (DM Guild takes a 50% cut of everything) So I am trying to set up something that I can sell it on my website too... but thats complicated. BUT itll always be cheaper on Patreon since they dont take as much. AND my patrons get like 60% discounts on ALL pdfs I put on DM's Guild

Considering getting the PDF, but I was wondering if the PDF has been updated with other features that you hinted at on the first page?
