View Poll Results: Which class do you want to vote off the list?
Goodbye, Fighter, you dull McDullerson, bastion of crappy roleplay of people with no intelligence or charisma, eternal choice of people who don't want to think or RP.
Now that we've finally got rid of the last remaining 4e class that I've actually played (I mostly DM), please can we get to the more pressing business of removing the Ranger from the next list?
People who want to pretend to be Drizzt or Aragorn already think that their character is the best at everything 'cos they're called Drusst or Oragern and they wield 2 swords and they cut stuff bad and they're so leet. They don't need their unimaginative class choice to be declared one of the top 5 classes in the game.
I voted barbarian as , barbarians are a type of people not a class.

Thank you Gary Gygax, for everything.

Next one's gonna be tough, though. Barbarian, sorceror, or wizard? Hard to decide...

Why are people voting Ranger? People keep saying that they're voting the Ranger off because he's mechanically boring- he sits in the back and fires arrows. Haven't you noticed that the Sorcerer is still around? If that's your issue, shouldn't he be a higher priority target?

At least the sorcerer makes different kinds of explosions, especially if he's a Wild Sorcerer
Get ye gone, Ranger. You're less exciting than the first D&D movie and less fun than Marlon Wayans in ANY movie. You have less charisma than political talk show hosts to thinking people. You're only positive is you may be a better sleep aid than a heavy sominex/tequila regimen.
Well, my sorcerer would leap and jump through melee combat, use thunder leap to get out of one sticky situation and into another (you do a Matrix jump, blasting everyone near you, then fly a short distance and blast everyone near where you land), turn into lightning and sprint through people to electrocute them, and shift everyone around because of my Mark of Storm feat.
The ranger? He just stays out of reach and shoots arrows.
But me, I voted for the fighter, because I dislike how they did not smoothly integrate the fighter's combat challenge with the normal opportunity attack rules. And while otherwise he may be mechanically solid, he's got no pizazz.
(and because if I can get rid of the fighter, there's a slight chance the sorcerer might win)
