Wich would without lead to Monks using Dexterity with Halberds, Greatswords ... and maybe, just maybe ... even Battleaxe with Shield, if your character will be profficient with that. O_o

That's really cool honestly, I don't see the issue. Monks needs some love anyways and halberds should totally be monk weapons.

I mean ... its same kind of restriction as there was for Monks no?

I think they did in 3.x, didn't they? I honestly don't see the point of limiting all rogues to being street urchins.

I see no difference.

Love it! It would be full "Orlando Furioso", an old poem from Ludovico Ariosto where a crusader goes so mad he tear down a whole forest. At some point it ends up on the moon too if I remember correctly.


... because it's fun!
