I'm supposed to say something here? But I just want a poll! OK, so you have a question about these core skill points.
I have a system for making boss monsters using levels and abilities and fun stuff.
This gives me a range of levels for an Named, Elite, or Monstrous creature.
Named are just a bit better than a normal creature.
Elites are much tougher, and should be only taken on with a group of their level.
Monstrous are raid bosses and something you just don't want to encounter.
Beating a Named creature of your level or higher is worth a point or two.
An elite gives the group it's level in points.
If the creature is even higher, more points get tacked on with the amount getting larger each level.
A bigger group or small contribution takes a bit off, a solo kill gives a lot more.
Obviously, the story dictates a lot of the fight scenes, but I do a lot of dice rolling in fights, so sometimes the outcome surprises me and that works its way into the story.
Are we at 50 words yet? Oh, cool.
Go vote.
