[QUOTE="Infiniti2000, post: 4226338, member: 31734"] My experience was in fact with a spellcaster as I noted above. Okay, yeah sure there are a few ways but they require a lot of effort on the part of the DM and they will get old quick. The fact is that the normal (average) encounter will either be easy or deadly, and not somewhere comfortably in between (i.e. not generally fun). It is most definitely tweaked out and, sure at 3rd he can't slay ancient red dragons, but he has the character [I]planned out for the next 17 levels[/I]. That's a "superbuild" in the making and is a surefire sign of tweaking. But, like I said, that could be perfectly fine for some people. It's not for me and thus why I felt it beneficial to point out a couple of problem areas. If you can help with those, please do. If Olaf likes spending all his spare time creating bad guys that last for a few minutes in a no win situational fight against his tweaked out PCs, then good for him. ;) [/QUOTE]
