[ScorpiusRisk]

The Swordmage is from Forgotten Realms, not the PHB.

 

[drothgery]

my hat of primal p0w3rz knows no limit. Let's finish them off by getting rid of the barbarian.

 

[Oni]

Voting off the Barbarian. While the class seems like it would be a fun one to play (I'd play one) from a mechanical perspective, still not sold on the blatantly magical elements involved with some of its powers.

 

[hafrogman]

I voted for Ranger this time, as I think he's got a better chance of going than the rogue, but they're both on my list for the same reason. I hate the weapon restrictions on powers. They mess up any concept that doesn't strictly adhere to the base stereotype for the class.

The rogue restrictions are tighter. . . but the ranger has the added bonus of being proficient with a bunch of weapons that he should never touch. So he goes for now.

 

[Cadfan]

These are mostly classes I really like. Of course, a lot of classes I like got voted off so far, but at this point all the ones I particularly do not like are gone.

So I'm going Sorcerer. Some of the builds are fun, but others are a bit too "point and click" for me. In spite of what people are saying about the archer ranger, I think its pretty obvious that the Sorcerer is the simplest and most boring striker.

 

[tyrlaan]

Sniping at ranger while the getting is good. Might be the only chance to kill the bugger.

 

[TerraDave]

Will the sorcerer make it into the top 3. Is it the "best" arcane class?

At last the day of DnD 4e redemption comes. !!!

Sir Bedevere: [lifts up her false nose] Well?
Peasant 1: Well, we did do the nose.
