[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6251665, member: 7006"] Not a true comparison. If the situation was one class got nothing until third level and another class got a bunch... then yeah, it could be a genuine concern. But that's not what we have here. Every class gets a whole heap of abilities at 1st level. They are all relatively balanced with each other. There's no obvious differential between them where a person should be bemoaning their choice of class because they're underpowered.. The only difference is that there are sets of extra abilities for each class that have been put in a box that says "sub-class" on the top to make them look pretty... but even adding them into each class does not change the amount or power of them. If you were to unwrap all those abilities from the "sub-class" box and just assign them to each class like normal class abilities... no one would notice any real difference. It's only because of [I]when[/I] those handful of wrapped abilities are given to someone that makes them think they're getting shafted. But its hard to feel sympathy when someone is opening a pile of presents in front of them but they're mad because the person across the table got handed their stocking rather than another box. You just have to tell them "Your stocking is coming, don't worry... just open that big present in front of you first." [/QUOTE]
