[QUOTE="Cap'n Kobold, post: 8669043, member: 6802951"] Bear in mind that it is entirely possible for fighters to genuinely be fine in some games. If you have long adventuring days, full of combat, in dungeons or other confined areas, for example and not a lot of other-pillar interaction or downtime, then fighters will shine, particularly at low levels. As social and exploration/investigation pillars start creeping in, days have fewer fights, and the party moves out of the dungeon and starts getting downtime, fighters will start doing less well. Most groups have a balance of all of these factors that is unique to them. Many people can say "Fighters are fine" in complete honesty because it is true. For them. Bear in mind also that some of the people who are saying "Fighters are fine" may be specifically referring to their home games, which might have house/variant rules in place to improve the fighter's lot or limit casters for example. Lets keep the snark down to a dull roar can we please? I don't want Fighters to go the way of the Katana. [/QUOTE]
