[QUOTE="Holy Bovine, post: 5084858, member: 203"] I couldn't disagree more with your player if I had an electronic disagreeing machine. The swordmage player in my group continually gets his free attack as he is usually 5-6 squares away from whoever he marks. The marked foe (99% of the time the biggest, baddest dude the party is fighting) has no choice but to attack someone else and, being the main bad guy of the encounter, almost always hits. Even if he doesn't the SM is off harassing controllers & artillery at the back of the enemy group and the main bad guy still has that -2 to hit (it is fun to note that, ime, when the bad guy misses it is often by just 1 or 2 points). The player I have is really 'into' the swordmage class and seems to have a fantastic grasp of its tactics and abilities. The fact the PC is so effective and only has 1 arm (yup - he lost an arm by choice when his dragonmark went haywire several months ago) is either a testament to the greatness of the class or the player or both.
