Talk:Better Hit Points (3.5e Variant Rule)
Problem?
While I agree on your thesis that it IS possible for a barbarian to have less hp than a sorcerer, let's think about this: The sorcerer will have, what, 14 Con? Rarely higher, since most would go for Dex. So, he gets a maximum of six hp. That's half of the HD of the barbarian, who in all means should have much better Constitution, not to mention rage. So, yeah, possible but seriously unlikely. As for the 'one crit from a greataxe' thing. Why don't we want this? I may sound idiotic, but please, tell me why that is illogical? It's a freakin' Greataxe, you can actually hear the capital letter. That means, it's dangerous, big, bad and can leave on nasty wound on ya. I think it's pretty natural that a weapon can kill you in one shot. It's what makes AC important, as well as knowing when to fight and when to run for the hills. So, all in all, this variant just gives you lots of hp at the begining and much less later on. Nothing more, nothing less.--Soulblazer 87 18:49, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
