What are you saying? That regular posters get special treatmen? It think you are wrong (a bit like your 'everything is broken' sweeping statement). If you hang around the boards long enough, then you'll see mods warning regular posters on occasion. Usually for only minor infractions.... but I have seen a suspension and life ban as well.1500run said:hey, look. if you all want to bang on a relatively new poster, then fine. beat up on me. i know pirate cat isn't going to warn anyone who is a regular poster anyway.
Bwah ha ha! I've actually suspended more people this month than I have in the preceding four combined, and every one of them was a regular poster. One had over 3000 posts. So I'm not exactly sure where that complaint comes from; you're welcome to email me about it if you want to satisfy my curiosity. In fact, complaints about moderators should always be handled by email and not in the forums, please.1500run said:hey, look. if you all want to bang on a relatively new poster, then fine. beat up on me. i know pirate cat isn't going to warn anyone who is a regular poster anyway.

but most of that IS broken. heck, most of what WotC put out after the core is broken in one way or another. they know that suckers will just keep plunking down money if they release new product, and after a while, power-gamer PCs will stop buying if the relative power level doesn't increase.
some isn't broken, like the warmage. the warmage is underpowered. but the beguiler is broken, no two ways about it. the knight is slightly broken. so is the warlock. the scout is mostly fine. etc, etc, etc.
*edit*
we're also getting away from the topic, as it were.
Ooops. Missed that.bestone said:Savvy rogue feat
I've had too many ftr/rog, bbn/rog, clr/rog and other rogue multiclass builds, often with twohanded PA weapons to concur. Rogue melee attacks are IMHO as dangerous as any melee attacks if the character is not build to be a sneaking halfling rogue (and I've seen and used some ugly builds for these as well). These rogues have been deadly and more so if they qualified for sneak attacks.Gort said:Well, in my opinion, rogue melee attacks are pretty worthless unless you're getting the sneak attack damage. Since AoOs are provoked by other entities, you don't usually get sneak attack because it's very situational, so the feat's not worth much on its own.
I've never actually seen anyone use the feat, either, but on the other hand I haven't seen many characters using reach weapons/effects, so I suppose it's not surprising.
