Which should factor more into a classes benefits? For example, the paladin can lay on hands which heals level times chr bonus. The divine grace ability gives a save bonus equal to chr bonus, regardless of level. Should the benefits of class abilities be more dependent on level rather than ability score? Or at least have a limit based on level as the duelist does with its canny defense ability?
The new combat expertise and power attack are dependent on ability scores regardless of level.

Combat expertise and power attack are feats, not class benefits.
Some class benefits use a level-based progression and may be more effective if the character has better ability scores (lay on hands).
Other perks grant a static bonus, but tie in with a wider ability which gets better with level (divine grace + saves).
