How do you plan for your characters to move from the Ethereal Plane to Baator? If memory serves, Baator only has portals to Acheron, Gehenna, and Sigil as well the the River Styx

Having played the Illrigger for a while now, I have to agree that the class has some major weaknesses. Yes, I hate the name and most of the subclass names - Painkiller? Really? The class has the power to be a major damage dealer for a short duration and then its just a fighter in black armor.
