[QUOTE="Chris_Nightwing, post: 6051687, member: 882"] This was hard to judge. The current fighter gets +3d10 to damage (16.5 average) whatever weapon he uses at 10th level, so that's sort of where I was working from. Obviously this can be rescaled according to how monster HP and spell damage scale. The defence thing was just so obvious, having seen parry in play it doesn't add much forcing someone to make dicerolls all the time and rewards the fighter for being right there in the middle of melee. The extra actions were supposed to mimic the extra attacks fighters have always had in some form previously (and currently have at 6th level - 5E has definitely lost the one-action-one-thing paradigm with expertise dice options), and were intended to be attacks for the most part, whilst limiting their use to tactically sound situations. An extra action 3-4 times a day at 1st level isn't really overwhelming, and I sort of liked the original playtest's twice a day attack twice thing. [/QUOTE]
