[QUOTE="mhensley, post: 3998140, member: 1604"] I'm surprised that nobody has tried to reverse engineer this guy yet. Let's take a closer look at the numbers, shall we? AC-20: Nothing surprising here. That's a pretty average AC for a 5th level fighter. DEF-17: How is this being done? 10 + level(5) + Dex Mod (2)? Speed-6: 30' movement speed. Is his armor not slowing him down? HP-50: Hmm... in 3.5, a 5th level fighter with a Con mod of +2 would have an average of 12 + (7.5 x 4) = 42 hit points. This guy certainly doesn't have that many more HP than what we're used to seeing. Maybe the rumours of pc's starting with triple hit points at 1st level are wrong. Of course, if he has a Con mod of 0 (kinda strange for a fighter though) he could have triple HP at 1st level (30 + (5.5 x 4) = 52, rounded down to 50). Attack Bonus +11: The BAB for a 5th level fighter in 3.5 is +5. Give him an 18 Str and that gets him up to +9. Give him Weapon Focus and a +1 weapon and you have +11. So nothing new here. Damage 20: In 3.5 a Greatsword does 2d6 with an average damage of 7. Tack on +6 for the 18 Str, +2 for Weapon Specialization and +1 from the magic weapon and you get 7+6+2+1 = 16. Rounded up to 20?
