[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1639683, member: 5777"] While true, it is obvious that they didnt pick an incredibly powerful set of feats. Especially when allowing feats from sources other than the phb. While it is an easy, quick reference you simply cant expect a substandard class made in an exceedingly substandard way to be able to shine against anything and everything. Some challenges are simply too much for certain classes to begin with, but then piling on more and more negative aspects and saying it proves something just isnt helpful. The npc I made useing a 10th level fighter and actually picking feats to do what he wanted to do showed that he will beat the giant. This is without pc gear and without a party to back him up. He even had money left over to spend. So, when picked more properly even such a lackluster guy can shine. Picking poorly will of course make a poor character. Just like if they had picked toughness for all of his feats and spent all of his money on magical pink bunny slippers even a 20th level fighter would have a hard time against the giant. [/QUOTE]
