[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 5203097, member: 957"] And that standard video response is really fun and entertaining. And when considering it, one must first keep in mind the hyperbole of the power discrepancy presented in the example. Are you claiming that the Fighter / Rogue disconnect is on this level? If so, then I'd strongly encourage you to find another system because the gap between PF and you will never be bridged. No offense, tastes differ and that is cool. But you are shopping in the wrong store. If you are not claiming that this is a fair example, but is just a fun absurdity, the cool, lets talk about the point presented. You will note that the video consists entirely of frontal assault combats. My gaming sessions sometimes involve frontal assault combats. And when they do, the rogues expect to be support for the fighters. (And if anything, they do too good a job of it in PF). But there are other events as well. And, just as often, the fighter is either supporting the rogue, or relying on the rogue to make the fighter's job a lot easier. If you are looking for adventures, I won't be a lot of help. I run my own stuff 95% of the time. I currently started running Council of Thieves, but the party is now on a small island off the coast helping a band a anti-Cheliaxian pirates beat back a serpentfolk scheme, while a small skum invasion accidentally brought about by the serpentfolk's actions is making things more difficult for both sides. If you are at all familiar with CoT, you will know that I'm way off the rails. So, if you want to play a very different game, then cool. This isn't it. No problem. If you WANT to play the kind of game I play, then what is the relevant point of the video? (It is amusing.) [/QUOTE]
