Well, so long as we're sharing:
I personally restrict myself from using traits or tactics I consider unbalanced or cheesy:
No Glass Cannon
No Lone Wolf
No Leech
No Zombie
Invisible can only be used to pass by enemies; you can't open doors or take things
No cheesing fights. That means that if I didn't know I was walking into a boss encounter, I can't make pre-battle preparations like setting traps or positioning people ahead of time. I am allowed to scout ahead if something is obviously up, but I'm only allowed to set up a trap once I've actually physically seen the enemy.
Also, no positioning people during dialogue. It's a cool mechanic; I like the idea that my guys can sneak behind the dumb villain while they are talking but at the same time it's kind of lame that I can just pause the conversation indefinitely while I have someone else coat the area in oil barrels in full view of the enemy and all their henchmen.
I also use the source difficulty mod so that enemies have enough action points to actually fight back. It makes healing and CC a lot more important as I can't simply rush in and one shot everyone with my warrior.
You still think that leech is overpowered after the nerf? I mean, it's still better than a lot of talents, but much more reasonable now. And you think Zombie is unbalanced? I've heard people say this, but I haven't heard much explanation. Is it because lots of enemies have poison attacks? Or does it just seem like an excessive amount of healing?
The pure randomness of the buffs on loot is a real sore point with me. I find a 2 handed weapon that has +1 sneak and +1 one handed sword? Heavy full plate armor with +1 dexterity and +1 Bow? The loot tables really need a good over haul as the random effects are pure rubbish and very lazy on the part of Larian.
I actually think a 2-handed weapon with +sneak could be kind of cool, if you were making a sneaky warrior or some weird build like that. Or a warrior who uses a bow sometimes? Strange loot rolls can be annoying, but they can also be perfect for certain characters. Of course, +1 single handed on a two handed sword is stupid and not possibly useful in any way, but that's the only possibility of those you list that I would completely eliminate. I also agree that loremaster and telekenis buffs seem excessively common.
