I love that each combat round initiative changes, but I think taking it one step further. Each class has a different speed and aptitude for combat. So propose the following.

  • Rouge Classes roll d10
  • Fighter Classes roll d8
  • Magic Classes roll d6

Modifiers could be added for races or even leveling. Better yet, maybe it’s based on the class hit dice… or even with a bonus from Wisdom.

Thoughts?

    Interesting idea… but fighters are the one used to combat (not rogues). But then again fighters usually have bigger (slower) weapons. And then it was not simple anymore. 😉

    I quite like that idea, but what would characters like Clerics or Bards roll?

  3. Personally I find re-rolling initiative each round just slows down combat even more, I don’t think would rolling different dice for classes would affect that, if you like initiative changing each round I don’t think it’d do any harm though.

      I agree. This shouldn’t effect the flow of combat just modify the order.
