I guess I don’t understand the point of this exercise. It doesn’t sound like she likes the feel of the 5e fighter, and another class would suit her better, so why try to persuade her otherwise?
I have to agree with Bill, I don't know Tetrasodium but I can't imagine they missed the whole "when all else is equal the fighter has less options then half 1/3 and full casters" and that sounds to me to be your friends problem.Because someone asked me to give a detailed example of someone that wants to play a fighter but finds the mechanics don’t fit. @tetrasodium asked for details there they are.
Also the stat array is 17 15 15 13 11 11
