That's 30-40 weapons plus training in all types of armor and shields. Does anyone here know someone proficient in 40 different weapons?! I would expect someone like that to rock! Yet... even one bandit (read: commoner with crossbow) can send a lvl 1 fighter wailing in fear.2nd Example: lvl 1 wizard has spent years (or decades, depending on race) mastering their arts of the arcane. After years of apprenticship and study, this wizard can... um... fire off a magic missle for 2 points of damage that won't even take out the local grandma, much less a raging orc warrior. And after firing off this wonder of arcane power, the wizard wants to go take a nap. Lets not forget that he can only read magic twice a day. Maybe that's why it took years to learn to cast spells? Hmm.... sounds like the lvl 1 elf wizard didn't study hard for all those decades he was mastering his craft.Bring on the lvl 1 heroes that actually match what they can do! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
