Talk:Gifted (3.5e Template)

This should be LA 2. --Havvy 01:42, 11 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Why? I may or may not agree with you, but its good to say the reasoning. -- Eiji-kun 02:26, 11 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Two bonus feats equates to one LA by itself. The rest equates to another LA.  If this was a race of itself, it would be an LA 1 race, but as a template, it becomes LA 2, since it is already applied to a race.  --Havvy 02:04, 12 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Why would two bonus feats equal an LA? The way I see it, an LA has to account for more than just what you might achieve in a level (say a dip into cleric can easily net you two feats, d8 hp, some saves, some skill points, and some spells).  So unless the two feats are Divine Metamagic and Robilars gambit, I hardly see how 2 feats would equal one LA.


 * The only concern I'd have would be the "Add your X to your Y" business, but even that may be alright. Also your math might be off, if this on a race is ECL 2 by being LA 1, then it wouldn't reason that the template would be LA 2.  That would mean the creature is ECL 3 to start out, not ECL 2. -- Eiji-kun 02:11, 12 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Havvy is actually right. As said in the Savage Species, two bonus feats worth +1 LA. Every race has some supplementary power : Humans have one bonus feat and more competence points, Elans can lower received damage by expending psi points, etc. But as a template, it shouldn't have any, so +2 LA is perfectly right for 2 feats + some powers.--Idlem 19:48, 2 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Let's not forget that Savage Species is ass, though. Also I'm not sure if they'll see this because that comment was literally a year old. Surgo 19:49, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
