Class Feature as subsitute for prerequiste

frumple

Well-known member
Hi there.

I am entering a class who has a class feature that can be substituted for a specific feat (Dodge) as a prereq. for other feats. How do I get Hero Lab to do this?
 
Let me be more specific...

I am modifying the Swashbuckler class from Tome of Secrets. The currently available user file handles the Evade class feature properly except that according to the class description Evade can be subsituted for the Dodge feat as a prereq. for other feats (such as Mobility). This is currently not implemented and I am trying to fix that.
 
Hmmmm have you considered doing it as an achetype? For the Templar class in Dark Sun I made it into an Archetype of the cleric and it works great. If its a class that models another existing class and you just have to switch a few things out here and there an Archetype over the existing class might be much easier to do.
 
While I was studying this, I found that the "counts as" mechanism in Hero Lab is currently bugged, so I'd recommend skipping this issue until that's fixed in the next update.

Roger. Thanks for looking into it! Now I have even more reason to ring my hands in anticipation of the next update. :)
