[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 6592067, member: 5834"] It would nerf martials too much against the capabilities of casters, but would make the different fighting styles balanced. If you lower martial damage too much, they start to feel overshadowed by casters. Casters can do a lot of stuff at higher levels, especially the wizard. You should see how amazing [I]animate objects[/I] is. You destroy against any creatures that don't have resistance to non-magical weapons. You cast [I]animate objects[/I], then toss in an AoE spell with a summoned creature and a [I]simulacrum[/I], sheesh, things don't stay fair. Martials need the damage boosting feats to feel good about their capabilities. Single-target damage is what makes them feel special. Otherwise the wizard is going to have to be Dr. Phil. "It's ok Wulfgar. You're contributing...You did really well. Teleport doesn't matter...
