Favored Class Options


Rules Questions

Instead of receiving an additional skill rank or hit point whenever they gain a level in a favored class, humans have the option of choosing from a number of other bonuses, depending upon their favored class. The following options are available to all humans who have the listed favored class, and unless otherwise stated, the bonus applies each time you select the listed favored class reward.

Emphasis mine

This wording is confusing to me. Does it mean that once you select this favored class option alternate that you then must take this and only this at each level up in your favored class?

Or does it mean that if you apply the APG rules to your game that characters of said favored class and race get to pick interchangeably between 3 options, hp, skill, and alternate and they are just saying something redundant and that it applies when you select it?

Grand Lodge RPG Superstar 2015 Top 32, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 32

Each time you level, you pick HP, skill rank, or an alternate FCB.

Silver Crusade

It is the latter.

Every time a character levels up with a level in his favored class, you can choose which favored class reward that character receives. Each level, the player makes a new decision from the various favored class bonuses available.


Thanks! I had thought so, but imho, that wording is odd. Thanks again!
