I recently joined a 3.5 game where the DM was using the spell point system. I asked if I could play a Factotum and he agreed so long as I didn't bring any of its legendary game breaking to the table.
I have basically built a knowledge monkey who is designed to use his knowledge to make his allies better.
However something that has me concerned is he thinks the encounter based inspiration system is too much so he tripled my pool but limited it to a daily amount. This resulted in me being very choosy on when I use the points and our first big encounter had him glaring at me as I used the large pool I had left to as best an effect as I could and made a bigger impact on the encounter then he was happy with.
I have tried voicing that if that one encounter was such a concern for him that he should change inspiration back to the way it was so I wouldn't have so many points to spend in big encounters and even tried to tell him that with how several Factotum abilities work this larger pool will just be more trouble the higher my level. His response was he wants to keep the change and make more changes to limit how effective the large pool is.
In the end I guess I came here to ask if I should keep trying to convince him to return the class to normal or if I should just try to accept his changes and try to keep my promise of not being broken?
