[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 5723466, member: 87792"] Honestly, when I want to celebrate my testosterone I find a mountain to go and climb. Or head off to somewhere I want to see with just the pack on my back. Or play sports. Or dance. Or swordfight. Or put the testosterone to use in ways I won't mention to keep the forum clean. The concept of a circular bonding session about our high levels of testosterone just strikes me as missing the point. Likewise Essentials D&D. Last time I made an Essentials pregen (a knight), he rocked. He smashed people to the ground or out of the way of attacking his allies. Whenever he killed someone he knocked [I]everyone[/I] around him to the ground. And he was always there, always right on the front lines, and in the lead. Calling weaksauce about [I]anything[/I] (except in character, between the ears) is just silly. He was at least as kinetic and metal as the rest of the party. And when I play (I was DMing that), I have nothing to prove. I can create horrendously complicated old school characters that burn with the fury of nine hells (literally in the case of my current warlock). I can also take simple characters like thieves or hexblades and make them rock every bit as hard. And so can many of those I play with. That you are unable to do so is more a reflection on you than it is the classes themselves. [/QUOTE]
