Not your screen monkey (he/him)
Sorry, but in 3.x that was actually sadly true. Your example wworks for ADnD. But 3.x removed nearly everything going for the fighter. Not on purpose, i guess, but still. 4e remedied this problem in an intersting way.
Pretty much hyperbolic BS at worst, cherry-picking cases at best. Fighters can contribute just fine to the game in 3e-based games. The example works OK for 3e even if it doesn't work as well as it did in AD&D.
