What pieces and bits from 4e could be stolen for 3e that could do well for it in general? This question is, of course, targeted mainly at those who still enjoy and/or play 3e.

Initially I thought the "atrib + skill" roll from 4e (where "atrib" replaces combat Pool) could be cool in 3e, but you folks already convinced me otherwise (thanks for that).

But I think there still bits that could be stolen from 4e, like for eg Initiative. Ditching the 3e initiative values and phase calculations (eg: 21-11-1) and replacing it for the (faster) 4e Initiative system could work well, at first sight.


So, what do you guys think ? Are there bits from 4e that could make be implemented in 3e and make it a more agile/simple/coherent/etc ?

Thanks.
