[QUOTE="The Crimson Binome, post: 6711719, member: 6775031"] I mean things like "warming up" on the party barbarian (who is subsequently patched up by the healer), or possibly on some torch-bearers. Unless you have fairly rigid guidelines on who counts as an enemy, it encourages paranoid blasters who see everyone as an enemy. All else being equal, it should be a matter of personal preference whether you want to play a delusional character. When it comes down to a significant difference in power during important encounters, it seems counter-productive that the "crazy" blaster should be the smart pick for the team that doesn't want to die. It just sets bad precedent, especially for the new players who might otherwise want to play this class. I don't really see the point of using this sort of scaling mechanism, when a rogue with a bow can do all this with greater consistency and without jumping through hoops to get there. [/QUOTE]
