[QUOTE="On Puget Sound, post: 5126023, member: 68988"] re his choices: this player had never played 4e before, doesn't own the books. Hasn't played D&D since the 90s. When he joined the game he wanted to be "a norse-type berserking barbarian human". At the time we had five other players; the two we've lost since then were a fighter and a paladin. So for a lot of reasons, I don't feel like he made any bad decisions at character creation that he ought to be penalized for or coerced to change; I'm just trying to make the group work better until we recruit another player or two. And re his non-stickiness....yep. All the others get hit a lot. Most fights end with all 5 heals (cleric w bard multiclass, and bard) used, and sometimes one or more characters on the floor. The current fight they are in may well be a TPK. So believe me, they are feeling the lack of a defender! [/QUOTE]
