Yeah. That way it scales.

Done, thanks.

FTFY

Thanks, Blitz.

By the way, Heverosaur, have you heard about the feat "Toughness" from D&D? It also gives you three HP, and is nearly universally regarded as one of the worst feats to take (I understand that D&D gives you more health, but my point still stands).

Considering that my usual character is a glacier of pure anger, hatred, slow movement, and tankiness I would probably pick that.

The problem comes when you realize that you only get six or so feats throughout your character's lifetime, and fighters get 1d12 hit points per level (even a wizard gets 1d4).

Is this game still running I was really hyped for it

It is, but I've been occupied with other matters for a bit, and I'll be leaving for a few days here in a while to a place with minimal internet connection so it might be a bit before I can get back to updating.

Waitlist me.

Maybe you should change Hardy to give you extra hp on level up?

You mean +1HP/level?

You can choose hardy which is +3 HP flat, but not +1 HP per level.

[Haveroszaur]

 , changing it back.

[ATHATH]

, changing it back.

Alternatively,  you could get a trait that reduces all damage taken by one.

A chainmail vest provides as much armour as a rusted chainmail vest....

There's not that much difference between the two, just one is rusted and the other isn't.
