4E Class Survivor - Round 10 (make your prediction)

[ScorpiusRisk]

Come on Druid! You're so very close!

Swordmage say byebye!!

Seriously though, if everyone is saying some combination of rogue, sorcerer, barbarian, wizard, and fighter, maybe we should just save some time and start voting down from those 5?

Nah, you never know what might happen. It's quite possible that there is a vast well of anti-defender hate which has thus far been concentrated on the warden, paladin, and swordmage, but which will suddenly spill over onto the fighter when there are no other defenders left.

Wow, 45 people so far with absolutely no sense of style.

Trying to decide between the Avenger and the Swordmage. At least the Barbarian is not running neck and neck with them or I would have to choose between three classes instead of two.

 

[ScorpiusRisk]

Hmmm if we count the public names, which as per the 1st post will actually decide the winner, the front runners look a little different.

Swordmage 33 votes
Druid 31 Votes
Avenger 28 votes
Ranger 19 votes

I voted for the Avenger. Had this class been done as a martial class representing lightly armored duelists, swashbucklers, and muskateers, I might have actually liked it. However, as a divine class, I don't like it. Hopefully, it gets shown the door this round and the door hits it from behind on the way out.

No, not at all, and I'm not sure how you got that outside of deliberately misreading my post.

Being offended by something that directly relates women to livestock is not at all puritanical, especially when coupled with not being offended by more scantily clad women. If your avatar was in, say, a red bikini - Well, that might not pass muster for a family site(Though I'm frankly amazed that the way it is currently does), but I wouldn't find it offensive and I'd enjoy the free cleavage. ;p

It's the women=cows thing. Women have been treated like livestock for thousands of years, and anything that continues that trend is frankly disgusting.

LOL I got it the first time around. Point was simply that what I "saw" as puritanism you claimed to be feminism - so maybe the two aren't so far apart (joke, which since you didn't catch it, kinda fell flat ).

And before you think anything, let me just say that I personally teach about women's rights and their position in society and all that is wrong about it - the avatar is not meant suppress or do anything of that sort. It's just meant to be the nicest pair of breasts around. As for flying on this site, I know for a fact that the moderators are well aware of it, so I would expect to have been approached long ago if it was a problem. I mean, it only took WotC 29 minutes, and they are not usually the quickest of the bunch

TIME TO DIE, SWORDMAGE!!!

QFT. I've been voting for that since round ONE. WTF?

 

[Blackbrrd]

I really don't like the Druid. I don't really like the swordmage either, but the Druid is just too clunky. AWAY!

I love the Fighter, Barbarian and the new Wizard*.

I am glad the Invoker is already gone, because I hate it with a vengance. I have one in my current campaign, and it's burst/Blast powers that only targets enemies takes away a lot of finesse in movement both from the players and dm.

*as in all the new options, particulary the genasi blaster variant.

Please, folks, let the politically tinged stuff drop like a lead balloon.


And, on a personal note - I would take it as a favor that folks not claim to know the "nicest" form of any part of a human body - as if there was one single perfection, or something. Such statements contribute to body image problems to a great degree, and make a number of women I know rather uncomfortable. So, I expect it makes some women here uncomfortable as well.
