[QUOTE="Evilhalfling, post: 4969447, member: 16991"] Im going to detail Why I think the classes have been voted of in the order that they fell. I came to this late but reading some of the threads would answer interesting questions[sblock] like which leader has the best mechanics? Do other people find the generic basline cleric as boring as I do? Does the Barbarian play well? It seems to be hurt by the proffesion v. culture issues Is the wizard the best mechanical controller or just a stronger archtype. [/sblock] [code]Round Victim Archtype Mechanics Flavor as Presented ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Bad: 1 Artificer Poor (Moderate?) Poor 2 Warlord Moderate Poor Poor 3 Shaman Moderate (Moderate?) Poor 4 Bard Moderate Moderate (Poor?) 5 Cleric Good Moderate Poor 6 Warlock Moderate Poor Good The Good: 14 Barbarian Good Moderate (Moderate?) 15 Wizard Good (Moderate?) Moderate 16 Sorcerer (Good?) Good Poor 17 Rogue Good (Good?) Good 18 Fighter Good Good (Good?) [/code] The question marks are where I think the class is borderline, or there is disagreement on answer. Archtype: is the class well represented in literature and movies? Mechanics - nuff said. Flavor - do the mechanics and flavor presented inspire the imagination and/or allow flexibility to create the character you want to play? thanks to Lud fore formatting & list of the fallen. [/QUOTE]
