[QUOTE="cjdc1973, post: 3068265, member: 20996"] I am in the midst of a mid-level campaign with a Barbarian 8, Frenzied Berserker 2. I can certainly vouch for the fact that the Bard is the party makes heavy use of Fascinate to calm down the rampaging Barbarian Berzerker. They also have ad issues with party members being on the receiving end of some lethal damage on occasion. Of course, the entire group is a bit on the Chaotic side (Good/Neutral, rather than Evil), so there are frequent friendly fire issues that are quite amusing to those not within the area of effect. So far, the FrB hasn't really caused any party catastrophes. The actual player is an excellent role player and truly expects the PC to suffer a final death quite soon after several near death experiences. I would concur in this matter due to the wanton abandon the PC tends to rush into melee combat way over their head while under the influence of a Frenzy. Only time will tell if the average CL 10 party will ever advance far enough to see if this particular character ever becomes a serious detriment to the group. You can follow along on their adventures in the Campaign blog at [url]http://www.noctem.com/vaasa/[/url] [/QUOTE]
