[QUOTE="Saeviomagy, post: 1955571, member: 5890"] Sounds more like a case of none of you having a clue about the rules in question or making an effective character. For starters, as others have pointed out, the character was illegal. Next up, it wasn't as effective as it could have been. 35 points of damage in a hit is not (believe it or not) an obscene number, especially against stuff like trolls. Doing it to all of them at once requires a bit of specialisation admittedly. Oh, and this is all core rules stuff. If you want to include complete X, then it's pretty easy to pull this off. I mean there are multiple spells that your wizard could have used which would have ensured the death of all the trolls with minimal damage to the party. With unlucky rolls for the monsters, it's all over in a single round. In fact, given a single round of preparation, and 2 spells spent I could kill them all in [i]melee[/i] as a wizard. At level 10, trolls are the equivalent of goblins or kobolds. Frankly they're small and easy to squish. Don't think that because someone does so that the character is somehow too powerful or a munchkin. [/QUOTE]
