[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9046043, member: 58172"] No "jab". You and other forumers − and when I thought about it I too − dont see the "nonmagical warrior" in play. Many discussions about Fighter and Wizard (and similar warrior versus caster discussions) are characterized as if "nonmagical" versus "magicaĺ". What is eye-opening, a significant segment of D&D players never see a "nonmagical" Fighter. It isnt the game that they are playing. Often the Fighter oneself is a magical character concept. 5e makes it easy to build a nonmagical Fighter. If a player keeps the Fighter nonmagical all the way into level 8, that is a fair representation of commitment to the nonmagical archetype. On the one hand, the survey is strict because it focuses on a longterm nonmagical Fighter. On the other hand, the survey is generous because one need not play this character concept oneself. One need only to see it in play in ones own group. This is a quick survey to get a sense of how much currency a "nonmagical" Fighter concept has among experienced gamers ... today. And how much exposure there is to this character concept. [/QUOTE]
