[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 9274286, member: 82106"] My problem with it was the actual usability. Stuff was all over the place. One supplement was giving you entirely suboptimal and super situational stuff that, or just nothing but pure fluff kits, and then the next one was doubling the damage output of every fighter or elf. Beyond that, stuff from different books combined in weird and hard to understand ways that was often crazy powerful, or stepped all over other classes, etc. Some of it was fine, not a lot was mechanically super interesting, but there are exceptions. The oriental kits/subclasses tended to be fairly interesting, albeit sometimes a bit overpowered relative to the more traditional ones, but that was no worse than the 1e situation, and usually didn't matter. Still, it could be problematic. Then there was the elf book, we just banned the entire thing flat out, along with the tactics book, but those were sort of the dreg end of 2e. [/QUOTE]
