At low levels, the warriors deal out the most damage and take the hits. At high levels, they become shields for the mage. But the game is balanced that way. If your philosophy is that warriors need to deal as much damage as the mages at high levels, then you obviously believe in a higher power curve overall than I do.You obviously do not play the game as much as I do. I see it happen all the time. Happened just a couple weeks ago in my Age of Worms campaign as a matter of fact. Power builds for warriors can hit 50+ damage regularly and not sacrifice too much of their ability to hit with the proper bonuses from feats, PrCs, spells, and other abilities. There is at least a 5% chance of killing a monster everytime you deal 50+ damage, and well-built a warrior can do this all day long. A wizard or cleric can usually only do it a couple times each day.And need I remind you of Shock Trooper? Or Leap Attack? Or Spirited Charge? Or the lance? Or the exotic weapon master? There are plenty of ways to boost your PA damage without sacrificing to much in the to-hit penalty.</blockquote>
