| Cool Tiefling |
A few years ago I made a Tiefling character that now has the 13rd level Fiend's Door ancestry feat (Legacy).
But when the new Remastered rules came out we decided to transition to what everyone apparently calls 'a large update - not a new version' (I am of another opinion but whatever..)
I recently decided to convert my build in Pathbuilder to Remastered rules and became aware of a gatekeeping and imo unnecessary ruleschange. Fiend's Door - now renamed Slip Sideways - now has the prerequisite of any fiendish lineage feat being chosen at level 1.
Why? Tieflings (Fiendish Nephilim if you prefer) used to be vague in their lineage. You didn't have to choose a Hell lawyer type like Hellspawn or any other lineage just to be Fiendish. And Fiend's Door was still available to you. Now, just because Nephilim may origin from both the Pit and Heaven and anywhere in between, you now have to spend your 1st level ancestry in a particular way to qualify for Fiend's Door/Step Sideways?
How do I make my character 'Fiendish' other than by choosing a lineage feat - which I refuse to do?
My GM have no problem with me having the old Fiend's Door feat, but I want a more general solution that works with RAW/RAI.
Sorry for the rant.
