Multiplying Wis an Cha

This may have results you aren't expecting. Small differences in stats will make bigger and bigger changes as levels are gained.

For example:

• Level 1 14/14 gives 4 points, 16/16 gives 9 points. Maybe this doesn't seem like a big deal (although double is pretty huge to me, it is a 5 point difference).
• Level 5, we can have a +2 item for both of them. 16/16 gives 27 points, 18/18 gives 48 points (21 point difference).
• Level 10, we can have a +4 item for both of them, one stat is +2 from levels. 20/18 gives 100 points, 22/20 gives 150 points (50 point difference).
• Level 15, we can have a +6 item for both of them, one stat is +2 from levels, another can be +2 from wishes at this point. 22/22 gives 288 points, 24/24 gives 392 points (104 point difference).
• Level 20, we can have a +6 item for both of them, one stat is +5 from levels, both are +5 from wishes. 30/25 gives 700 points, 32/27 gives 880 points (180 point difference).
• Alternatively, we can have a +6 item for both of them, one stat is +3 from levels one stat is +2 from levels, both are +5 from wishes. 28/27 gives 720 points, 30/29 gives 900 points (still 180 point difference).

That's the first thing you may want to consider. The points get crazy in the first place, but they also diverge fast. --Aarnott (talk) 16:55, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Healing Burst

It be crazy. Considering the extreme case of level 20, you will heal 100d8 (standard action) + 90d8 swift action. That's 855 HP each round, which can go for a while given the number of points you get. Or you can use split burst for 65d8 to 2 targets + 55d8 to 2 targets for a total of 240d8 or 1080 HP. Not really a moderate balance class (and above a high balance class too, but maybe not good enough for VH). --Aarnott (talk) 17:05, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
