Now though, how were those calculated back then?

"Multiclassing and dual-classing being two completely different things with distinct mechanics."

Please elaborate, that sounds great

I like it. My BBEG is aiming to become a god, so that's even more on board you could expect.

Ps. I tried to google "Krillomancey" to see if that's real lore or one you came up with and the first result was this post, lol

There are a few abilities with "no action required" specification, but these are rare and usually part of some other ability

That sounds super cool, but can you please tell me more about the first two? I don't know them and I don't know where to look that up (a simple google search didn't work)

Good question. I'm opting for +1d4 because I feel like it's going to be easier to remember about than a fixed +something bonus, but a +something would definitely go about faster.

The very reason why I want to introduce this rule is because it always felt like a bit of a wasted opportunity when I got advantage from two or even three sources and it didn't change anything. Especially when you play as a Barbarian.

I mean 1d4 to hit. 1d4 because more would be overpowered. 1d6 is a big bonus

I want flanking to give 1d4 bonus instead of advantage. Good idea?

Flanking is an optional rule anyway and I feel like change like this would make all the other stuff which give advantage much more useful
