Feats
Feats are meant to either be used in combat or enhance role-play by granting some cool effect.
Archetypes
The archetypes should be used as a guideline to create new feats: it should fit anywhere on the big circle, but not inside.
For example, a feat cannot be both a DPS feat and a Support feat, but it can be a DPS feat and a Blaster feat.
Definitions
Spells of an archetype follow these guidelines: DPS : focus on average sustained damage per round Blaster: focus on limited high damage Support: focus on heals, buffs and debuffs Tank: focus on debuffs and heals Bruiser: focus on self buffs and self heals
Composition of a Feat
- Name
- Prerequisites List
- Effects
- Costs (Stamina, actions)
- Range
Balance
The stronger the effect, the harsher the prerequisites. Given the horizontal progression, one single high skill as prerequisite night not be enough. Combine multiple skills for prerequisite.
Additionally the stronger the feat the tighter the niche it belongs to. Each upside needs to be reflected by an equal downside somewhere else. Downsides can be explicit. If the niche is very small, taking the feat can be a downside in and of itself.
