Subject: Is the 5th edition feel no pain rule too good?

Hi,
This weekend I played a game of 40K and my death company only took one casualty. This was because I rolled 4s 5s and 6s on the Feel No Pain rule.
Is the feel no pain rule too good or was I just rolling really good results? And yes, my death company is ADHD fueled.
I play 5th ed, and here are my death company stats:
Death Company 60=285
+2 marines +40
power sword +15
power fist +25
thunder hammer +30
jump packs +75
infernus pistol +15
plasma pistol +15
hand flamer +10

Yes, yes it is. That is probably primarily why they changed it in the subsequent editions.

It's now 5+ but AP can not take it away - only double strength. So T6 models that have it always take 2 saves if they have an invo...In many ways it's better now.

If you want 3+ FNP back then it needs to get ignored by anything that would ignore your armour save again.
Trust me. Keep the 5+ FNP. You'll live longer.

AP 1/2 weapons ignored it (and back then all power weapons were AP 2). So yeah, your MEQs have 4+ FNP instead of 5+ against lasguns, but against plasma/melta/etc they get no FNP and no armor save.

And every power weapon was basically ap2. And there were lots of power weapon wielding guyz due to no challenges, old wound allocation and easiness of getting into mellee.
Fnp was good when it worked. But it worked much less often than now.
