How about some love for the thief paladin in dnd next?
Armored Stealth
You waste no extra movement focusing on how to avoid even the slightest noise from the bulk you wear
benefit:you no longer have disadvantage when in heavy armor, and you gain advantage on all checks to avoid being detected

How about something that is very system non-specific! I want minions in all my games! Here are my thoughts for Pathfinder and DnD Next…
4 minions = 1 regular monster in a fight at an appropriate CR
Do NOT change the ability scores of a minion OR its saves. This is very important! You want the monsters to be able to dodge attacks as well as their normal counter parts.
Like in 4e DnD, a minion essentially has one HP. One hit will kill them.
Their damage is 1/8 of the max for any attack. Find this out in advance. Why 1/8? A minion should trouble a PC, but not kill a PC. Remember, the PCs are the big, damn heroes of the system and they should not die to a random villager/soldier.
A minion will always have mundane equipment and very little if any money, however, if non-mundane equipment bonuses are factored into a normal monster values used for the minion template, do not remove those bonuses from the minion.
Minions do NOT die when a spell effect does damage on a miss. Minions are either immolated by the fireball or jump aside.
That’s it! I plan to start using these in my games. Will you?
How about something for DnD Next? I want more advantage….Teamwork maybe?
Team Advantage
Benefit: When you are engaged with an enemy and another person with this feat, you gain advantage on the attack.
Thoughts? Should there be a penalty?

New DnD Playtest with a lot less feats. Lets add one
Healing Master

You focus your talents on keeping your friends alive. So much so even your worst is often better then then most peoples best

How about some fun for DnD Next?
Advanced Advantage
Benefit:When you have advantage, you gain an additional +2 to the attack. If you give up advantage for any reason, you still keep the +2 to the attack roll.

Time for a DnD Next Spell
Stress
Enchantment Cantrip
You cause your target to worry and question every action they take making them miss shots they could have taken
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 25 feet
Duration: Save ends
Effect: Your target becomes stressed if it fails a wisdom save. At the end of every turn, it may make a wisdom save to end the effect. While stressed, the target takes a -1 proficiency penalty to all d20 rolls.
Saw something in DnD Next, think this might be a fun idea…
Skill Dice Explosion
When you do well, you REALLY do well
Benefit: When you roll the maximum value on a skill die, you roll again and add the total.
I was playing some DnD Next with some friends, and I’ve had a special request for an item
Bullwark Shield
A large shield made of heavy steel with a small arrow slit inthe front. When viewed from above it looks like a large L. The base is serrated to better dig into the ground
Price: 50gp
AC: +3
Weight: 50lb
Speed: -10 feet/-5 feet at Strength 16
Requires: Strength 13
This “shield” is not so much a shield as a portable wall. You may use this as shield, but as a free action, you may dig the shield into the ground in front of you. When you do so, you pick two connected sides. You now have heavy cover from attacks made from those sides. You may attack through the arrow slit at now penalty.
