Now, consider this: Players can reroll a save they find low before learning its result, as long as they have a +7 or higher base save and are willing to throw at a -6 penalty. (If your base save is +12, and you make a saving throw that you're afraid might fail, you can roll again at a +6 instead, taking whatever the new result is.) This would allow for players with higher saves to be able to make up for crappy luck, but not in a way that's too powerful (taking a -6 on a save is a significant penalty), and most certainly not in a way that guarantees success. Would you approve of this? If so, would a natural 1 count as an auto-fail without reroll?

AnonymousInternets 10-02-06, 06:56 PM	Hm. Well, I'm glad someone likes it... Anyone else agree or disagree?

Rhialto 10-04-06, 06:20 PM	Sure, it's optional, but you'd be dumb not to take up the option if it's available and you rolled low enough. Only people with very high base saving throws anyway would have the option, so they are the only ones who could benefit from this option.
