Here's an idea: Twists of Fate!

[Certon]

Put twists of fate into the new system. Really. 1-4 slots that open up at 21, 24, 27, and 30. Each slot earns experience and "tiers up" from T1 to T4 over time.

Each slot can "twist" in a power from a power pool set by the devs, each ability related to an ED tree.

This would give the players back some of the versatility they are going to lose in the sundering of ED's, and it will give devs the ability to greenlight whatever powers they are OK with everyone having access too. Heck, they could even add back ability score bonuses for those who want them, with T1 ability score bonus being +1 and T4 being +4 to the respective ability score.

No

I second the motion of “No”!

Less power is better. More nerfs please.

R1 solo should have high failure rates

Good one!

You're being sarcastic, right?

Nope.

More nerfs, less power.

I really mean it. R1 solo should fail a lot. R10 full group should be 90% failure rates

It would have been kinda neat if the most popular Twists of Fate had become Epic Feats, our characters had each received three of four special Feats in Epic levels to take them, and the Epic Trees had included completely different and new special skills. Alas, too late now.

I have a better idea. Scrap fate points along with tomes of fate (with a proper compensation), along with epic completionists.
Just give 1 DP per 5 EPLs, plain and simple.

That would COMPLETELY suck. I maxed out all ED trees and got all twists, and on many characters, have a max of 3 EPLs and the characters were COMPLETE in my book. Doing this would just throw them all on an EPL treadmill that is COMPLETELY DREADFUL AND GRINDY.
