Watching my players play some DnD 5e, I thought this fighting style up watching my poor two weapon fighter miss way too many times.
Double Chop
When you wield two weapons, you may forego your second attack to make one attack roll. If you do, you gain advantage on a single weapon attack. Class features, abilities, spells, and other effects such as a rogue’s sneak attack do not trigger on advantage gained in this way.
Thoughts?
Let’s play with some of the spell rules a bit…. How about one where you gamble!
Fortune and the Bold
1st-level necromancy
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 100 feet
Components: V, S, M (a die)
Duration: instantaneous
You point at a creature in range as the forces of life and death coalesces around the hapless creature. That creature may elect to make a Charisma saving throw. If the creature does not, that creature takes 2d10 necrotic damage. If the creature does make the roll and succeeds, that creatures heals 2d10 damage. If the creature makes the roll and fails, that creature is dealt 4d10 necrotic damage.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage dealt and healed increase by 1d10 for each slot level above 1st.

How about a spell for DnD 5e?
Ravages of Nature
1st-level enchantment
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 100 feet
Components: V, S, M (sand of the desert and water of a glacier)
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute
You choose a creature in range and that creature in instantly ravaged by the harshest environments on the planet. That creature makes a Constitution saving throw. On a success, the spell ends with no effect. On a failure, that creature receives on level of exhaustion. Each turn as a bonus action, you can cause that creature to make another Constitution saving throw. On a success, they do not improve, but on a failure, that creature increases their exhaustion level by one. You can continue to cause the creature to be exhausted until it succeeds three saving throws in a row, it dies, or the duration of the spell ends.

If you can do it in Dungeons and Dragons 5e, you should be able to do it in Shadowrun 5e. Let’s make that happen!
Go for Broke!
Cost: 10 karma
You like to pull success from the jaws of failure. Maybe you succeed in the clutch, maybe you’re just lucky. When you lose 1/2 of your attack dice pool from negative modifiers to your dice pool and you gain 1 net success over the opponents dodge roll, add your edge score to the success total.

Feats in DnD are pretty powerful. Let’s look at splashing a bit of each class around!
Rogue Training
You’ve trained a bit in the ways of the street. Gain the following benefits:
Thoughts? Is this too powerful?
Ran a game of DnD 5e last night, and had a human rogue attacking into the dark. That takes some brass. Let’s start to reward that!
Against the Odds
prerequisite: rogue
You not one to be told the odds. Sometimes, just sometimes, you just have to go for it. Gain the following benefits:
Thoughts?
Most undead are not weak to radiant in DnD 5e. I want to fix this!
Undead Destroyer
The light you bring makes all who serve unlife shrink to the shadows. Gain the following benefits:

What if you just want to splash a little fighter into your wizard? Let’s see if we can make that happen!
Fighting Training
All those nights around the fire pit have paid off as you’ve learned how to truly handle yourself in a fight. Gain the following benefits:
Thoughts?
Let’s keep building on what out there for fighters, paladins, and rangers.
Sword and Shield
Once per turn you are wielding both a shield and a one-handed weapon, choose one of the following: Get a +1 bonus to AC, +1 bonus to attack rolls, or reroll once this turn any weapon damage dice that are a 1 keeping the second result.
Thoughts?
Looking over some negative qualities, and I’d like to add another!
STANK!
Bonus: 4 karma per level (1 to 3 levels)
Maybe you just don’t shower after binges on the matrix. Maybe the dumpster you call home just doesn’t have indoor plumbing. Or maybe that hippy, dippy mage commune doesn’t have hot water. Whatever your reason, you just STANK! It’s in the area, it’s all around you, and it so physically palpable, it hurts! For each rank you have in this quality, reduce the dice pool of any social tests anyone on your team makes by 1. People who can’t smell are unaffected.
