[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7328907, member: 6801845"] So the question is - are you having fun? Is the group having fun? Is the DM adjusting their encounters to still provide a challenge? If yes, then I don't see a problem. In my last campaign that I ran, my wife ran a half-orc barbarian. She was a terror - recklessly attacking while taking half damage and still having a decent AC while wearing no armor. Just tearing through monsters left and right. I couldn't really complain too much because her choices had all made sense for the character she was playing. So I adjusted the game. Sometimes I threw high AC bad guys she still had a hard time hitting, sometime big buckets o'hit points where I actually appreciate someone that could do triple digit damage on a regular basis so it didn't become a slog. Other times I hit her with spells (the party hated it when her barbarian failed her domination save) or did fire, acid or lightning damage and so on. Sometimes I just shook my head when she leaped onto the back of that dragon and then proceeded to do multiple crits and destroyed the encounter. I adjusted the game to fit the characters I had, not the characters that fit my vision of what a party "should" be like. Which is something I've always done. [/QUOTE]
