They now always succeed at anything against a lower tier opponent without needing to roll, but have to repick their abilities (their old abilities are useless against people in their current tier), which function normally against Tier 2 levels 1-5 opponents. All checks automagically succeed against lower tiers and conversely, fail against higher tiers. This is fully backwards compatible as you would merely have to divide a monster or (N)PC's ECL by 5, round up to calculate their tier, and if the tiers are different from the party, no need to bother any further, but if they are the same tier, you have to merely have to subtract the closest multiple of 5 below the ECL from the ECL and thematically rebuild the creature from scratch as a creature of this calculated level. As for non confrontational difficulty checks, use the same mechanism as the one for calculating creature level.

There we go. Fixed forever.
What "tier" are you talking about?

Surprisingly equivalent problem solving skills displayed here and in the OP.
For a minute, I used to be "a guy" in the TTRPG "industry". Now I'm just a nobody. For the most part, it's a relief.

PROBLEM: The feat "Weapon Focus" is one of the worst feats of all time.
SOLUTION: Increase the bonus of Weapon Focus from +1 to +4.

PROBLEM: Characters don't get enough feats.
SOLUTION: Characters get a feat at every level.

PROBLEM: The Monk is bad.
SOLUTION: From now on the Monk get sorcerer spellcasting, but the spells are "special techniques" or something like that.
Oh, then you are an idiot. Because infected slut princess has never posted anything worth reading at any time.
