1. Start Honour Mode, and intentionally die (stand in the fire in the first room). This is the only way to keep the Honour ruleset with Custom settings as of Patch 5.
2. Set Camp Cost Multiplier to 3 (max)
3. Set Trader Price Modifier to 4 (max)
Rules:
1. Only 1 respec per character, 0 for Tav/Durge (or no respecs whatsoever, but I just can't with Shadowheart because her starting stats make my eyes bleed)
2. No Hill Giant Elixirs because they are too readily available early game and make certain builds (Tavern Brawler Monk, looking at you) way too OP early on
3. Only Long Rest when it is logical (i.e. not in the middle of fights/clearing an area)
4. If you have the Deluxe Edition, you must toss the extra camp supplies it gives you and cannot use the Shapeshifter helm (forget what it's called)
5. No consuming of Illithid Tadpoles (you can still use the Illithid persuasion ability)
6. No Multiclassing. This eliminates a lot of "optimized" builds like 1 Wizard dip for scribing spells and 2 Fighter dip for Action Surge and weapon/armor proficiencies. It also makes you consider taking feats you may not otherwise take.
More suggestions welcome.
