Message: <blockquote data-quote="Elf Witch" data-source="post: 5910129" data-attributes="member: 9037">I have yet to see a perfectly balanced system and that includes non DnD games.There are three issues that I see one is a game may start out pretty closely balanced but as new splats come out the game slowly starts having power gaps.  The only cure for this is to either say no to them core only or be willing to police them and adjust them if there is a problem.Then there is the fact that once a game is in play there are some really smart people who figure out how to maximize things go onto any board with a chr-ops and you see it. Again you have a choice you can whine on message boards that game is broken or as DM you can take control and start saying no to certain combos.The third is there will always be people who have system mastery and players who are not interested. Now if you end up with a situation where those who have it are walking all over those who don't and they can't have fun with a weaker character and the non system mastery folks can't have fun then there is only one logical choice and that is don't play together.I know a lot of people don't want to hear this but sometimes certain play styles don't work together. If the issue comes that no matter what you do half your table is going to be unhappy then right there is a clue that maybe this group should either play something else or split into separate groups.</blockquote>
