Thanks for stopping by! <BR/><BR/>Yeah, I didn't forget that Wizards still get bonus feats every so often - I just wanted to give them, and other characters, the ability to gain additional rituals for a feat - which seemed like a fair exchange, especially since some rituals are <I>expensive</I> to purchase.Jonathan Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06133232985480734844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2181153683994775767.post-19023218371064612822009-02-08T17:31:00.000-05:002009-02-08T17:31:00.000-05:00I personally solve these problems by just letting ...I personally solve these problems by just letting players learn rituals for free whenever they get an opportunity, such as peeking at a ritual book of a fellow mage or coming upon a scroll. I limit these instances so that they can't spend a month at the library and know every ritual in the game, but I allow them the benefit whenever I think they should learn a ritual or so.<BR/><BR/>As for ritual caster, I changed it so instead of giving 2 free rituals, it gives access to all level 1 rituals. This is a big advantage in ritual casting, moreso than just getting 2.<BR/><BR/>(It's also important to remember that Wizards learn Rituals every couple levels for free, which gives them a gigantic advantage if you look at rules-as-written ritual casting and acquisition. I really don't think, at least where the Wizard is concerned, that his ritual class feature is devalued at all.)<BR/><BR/>It's nice to have it in feats I suppose, but I just prefer issuing a houserule or DM fiat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
