[QUOTE="N'raac, post: 6207307, member: 6681948"] I only listed off a few things you could do. You chose to zone in on one. To me, this is like complaining that your Ranger's favored enemy does not show up in every scene. The rogue has a special attack ability which works against some opponents and not against others. That means it will not always be usable. Should the other players have demanded traps be removed because only the rogue can deal with them at all? This gets back to the "one trick pony" issue. The more specialized the character, the more likely he is in a situation his specialty is not suited for. Well, since only the Wizard summons demons, you're making the Rogue player just sit on his hands while you conjure up wishes. If I run that game, I'm a bad GM by your standard above, am I not? You're the one asking why we can't play by the rules. The rules say So why are we not supposed to play by the rules now? [/QUOTE]
