Gnorman's Complete E6 Compendium

[Rizban]

I'm going to go ahead and post my changelog so far and my edits to the first seven classes. I understand if you choose not to incorporate any or all of these edits, so I wanted to provide a list of just what I changed to make it easier on you to sift through.

Changelog

The Brawler

Spoiler

Show

• Proficiencies - fixed spelling
• Archetype - slight clarification.
• Leaf in the Wind - Changed "if any" to "if positive"
• Elusive Target - Added type "untyped" to movement speed.
• Strike the Heavens - changed "unarmed attacks" to "unarmed strike" and rephrased for clarity.
• Faster Than the Naked Eye - reworded for clarity.
• Hammer Fist - added "only", specified as limited to one attack in the round, changed "unarmed attack" to "unarmed strike", changed "receiving opponent" to "target"
  
  
• Breathstealer
  • Lesser - Reworded to match standard 3.5 wording and made it only count if advantageous so it never becomes a drawback.
  • Moderate - Specified it as an AoO.
  • Greater - Specified as Constrict ability and clarified damage. Changed from "Huge" to "two size categories larger" and provided examples.
  
  
• Bruiser
  • Lesser - The ability negates the Brawler's 4th-level ability Strike the Heavens, so I completely rewrote its effect to compensate slightly for the lost class ability. I gave him basically the Ravager's ability, as this seemed the archetype focused on overcoming damage reduction.
  • Moderate - slight wording edit
  • Greater - slight wording edit
  
  
• Cenobite
  • Lesser - added "use"
  • Greater - Created an ability for the missing ability.
