[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5172494, member: 2011"] [sblock=OOC] Not to get too sucked into this type of discussion, but I personally think that Pacifist Healers should not really be in the game system as PCs for two basic reasons: 1) From a roleplaying aspect, they are like military intelligence, an oxymoron. "Hey, it's ok if you cut off that Hobgoblin's head, just as long as I don't do it. My hands are clean. Who wants burgers for dinner?". ;) This is like an animal activist hanging out with his scientist buddies at an animal testing lab. 2) They screw up encounter balance. They can sit there and damage foes right and left, just like other Clerics until later in the encounter where they can mega-heal better than other Clerics. IMO, they upset game design balance. Just my two cents. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
