abraham 01-20-08, 04:23 PM	what no repleys?,
Xeorsos 01-31-08, 07:18 AM	They're neat ideas, but eating and drinking are one of those things that are kinda glossed over when it comes to mechanics. Feats are rare and valuable, and I don't think any sane player would be willing to blow two feats for the ability to skip a few meals. As they stand, these feats are perhaps even more underpowered than the abysmal Stealthy and Magical Aptitude. My suggestion to you is this: Combine them into one, calling it something like "Perfect Metabolism" and beef it up a bit. Consider adding a bonus vs. Poison or Disease, allowing a character to be perfectly rested after only 4 hours of sleep, or let it count as the Endurance feat in terms of qualifying for other feats and prestige classes. Consider changing the amount of days you can survive without food/water to your constitution bonus, and *definitely* run your game with serious repercussions for not eating (and perhaps scare food sources, like deserts and lone islands). Keep in mind that this feat is essentially a watered down ring of Sustenance, and that's a cheap magic item.
Realms of Chaos 01-31-08, 10:07 AM	Something Like this would look pretty valuable. Perfect Metabolism Nothing in your body goes to waste. Prerequisites: 15 Con Benefits: You may survive without food for a number of days equal to your constitution score and without water for up to half as many days. Special: Perfect Metabolism counts as the Endurance feat for the purposes of meeting the prerequisites of feats and prestige classes.
Xeorsos 01-31-08, 10:31 AM	Heh, now that I've thought it over I'd probably write it out like this: Perfect Metabolism Your body works so efficiently that you are able to overcome its basic needs. Prerequisites: Con 15 Benefit: You can survive without sustenance for a number of days equal to your constitution modifier before you begin suffering the effects of starvation and dehydration. You also need only rest for four hours a night to become fully rested. Arcane spellcasters must still rest a full eight hours to regain their spells. Special: Perfect Metabolism counts as Endurance for the purpose of prerequisites for feats and prestige classes.
abraham 02-08-08, 06:55 PM	thank you! these feats that I made were my attempt to translate them into 3.5 terms(I got the ideas for them from the complete handbook of huminoids)
MoltenDm 02-08-08, 07:16 PM	Resting 4 hours doesnt have anything to do with metabolism does it? :P I preffered Realm's Perfect metabolism
