[QUOTE="TheNovaLord, post: 3041504, member: 31097"] we are in a 32 point campaign at the moment and everyone is LG/NG in alignment and are all 'knights' and have just reached 5th their is a cleric, a FS, 2 pal, a scout and a ranger I think thus far the FS and the scout outshine the rest. the FS seems a combat monster (he hasnt gone for summoning like most folk seem to, so has magic stone, PFE, vigor, and now bulls strength. Is a monster with his greatsword and letheal with a sling (he is a wood elf and has 18 and 18 dex, with 6 int and 10 wis and 14cha i think). Ok he will never cast offensive spells at others but that means he can buff himself and others no end, and heal as needed. He has few skills obviously. Bull Str especially got weakend in 3.5 but being able to cast it almost every combat per day (with PA and cleave as his feats) is great. He has superb refex save v the party human cleric which saves a lot of hp and therefore healing spells. i think if he could use a feat to take 'turning undead' 1+CHA per day even he will utterly outshine the cleric. Id therefore say he is as balanced as any character can be to the cleric He is alos played very well by the player as someone who has no idea where he is going, or why, but is driven by soem unseen force. the party paladins look very weak in melee next to him This is the only FS i have ever seen so maybe i am naive?
