Except there is nothing bland unless you play it blandly. sure a wizards a wizard, but if you play it differently then it's new, different and not bland. Playing a race that is too powerful, filght, invisibility, massive stat bonus for anything a dexy caster cares about. doesn't make the...

I'd toss it in the fire, then tell you to make a gnome mage. People with their abominations claiming to be real characters...

Hrm... kinda removes the point in putting it in the forum I put it in but hey as long as Plain Sailing sees this....

No fun, just faster, I would guess than combining threads.

Here is an Idea for the ADMIN since I can't PM him because I don't give money to the site. Instead of combining the "scoop" threads make your own some time before the excerpt comes up, and DELETE the threads made by people that don't pay attention to the fact there is already a thread for it...

I'm not following you. you want a damage dealer(but not as much as a "real ninja") and you want tankability(but not as much as a plate wearing+sword and board fighter). I give it to you... and you say it's not as useful? How? How is it not as useful? AC not as high? tough you asked for less...

But why did he get so far as to get that first level in 3.x? for the power, if it's actual background and not a path he continues down there is not a need for the class level in it. It's a matter of power. Sure 4th ed has a little less leeway for the power base, but again... if it's a...

no. but it's what you keep asking for... a reasonably armored damage dealer.

So... a fighter? but not in platemail. One breastplate wearing dex based fighter.. coming up.... Have I just been barking at the wind with this?

depends on whether or not you consider being a petty pick pocket and street rat worthy of maintaining into paladinhood... in 3.5 I'd say one level or a few cross class skill points.... in 4 looks like you either take the training feat... or leave it as background and not claim massive skill in...

Then why are you even in the forums discussing it? that seems like a vary dangerous game to play.

The opposite actually. The class can be very good, and with a little flavor change it can represent a different archetype. any idea that has a basis on a single background can be represented by the base class too, with only a slight adjustment of flavor. The mighty samurai? Ok. Bushido, the...

My point is you don't HAVE to multiclass to get the FLAVOR of the character! You don't. Getting additional mechanics involved just because you think you need them is not helping you to Roleplay your character.

hmmm.... I'm tempted to yell, scream and fume about how a certain media type from an island nation has ruined and warped the minds of America... But the image is awesome if a bit ridiculous. Fantasy HERO is the system that would be best for the character idea... but I digress....

weaker because it's not easily abused? weaker because people might actually have to think about a slightly more realistic character?(damn you char-op board) But more specifically I was talking about changing the FLAVOR of an ability to make it fit with a concept. For example I'm going to be...

Point 1. Thank you. Point 2. Yes. I'm saying you shouldn't do it. Not that you can't, but shouldn't. You took classes that allowed you to do what you wanted, but... why in hell would you want to dual wield greatswords? two weapons bigger than you and not balanced at all. Just assuming...

More narrowly defined how? combat roles are basically the same, meatshield, caster, skirmisher, boss. The ideas behind the characters are basically the same. You don't have to force the mechanics of the game to fit the flavor of you character, you can change the flavor of the mechanics to...

Um... NO. They simply made the classes better and restricted multiclassing to stop people from either making gimps, or ridiculously powerful characters. If you have to define your character by 6 classes... you should be rethinking the character.

again... I think the basic powers you get from the first feat aren't as important as opening up secondary feats and paragon paths. from what I've seen there are really only a few differences between powers, mostly range, damage type, and area. so having access to buffing feats will probably be...

I'm actually a little more confused than normal...but I do know that one of my ideas(based on how I thought the multiclassing system would work...) for a character won't work... unless you can feat retrain the multiclass feat. >:3 on a different note... can anyone see the pictures in the...
