[QUOTE="twilsemail, post: 4674104, member: 79628"] Did no one else in the fight get hit? If that's the case either your fighter is the best defender ever, or the fight isn't challenging enough. Almost every character in our games ends up spending at least one surge per encounter (with the exception of the Archer Ranger when we had one). Generally Healing Word gets used when someone is bloodied. While it's sometimes the same person, it's not always. If the healer was just healing the fighter, everyone else would lynch him. Dungeons and Theories is great, but at the table I can't see someone going from 9 to full. They're going to get hit again. Someone else is going to need healing. Something will happen. I can concede that a cleric can do the job if he holds his healing until after the fight. I'm not used to them in a game. We've generally got a Warlord or an Artificer. I know the artificer doesn't work well, but we like the flavor of the class. Apparently they were something different in 3.5, something worse/broken. [/QUOTE]
