[QUOTE="Ancalagon, post: 7840592, member: 23"] I'll post something that may be a bit... uncharitable to some fighter players (not all! some!). I think there are players who are there for combat. They are waiting for the next fight, the next bout of excitement. The part in between is bla bla bla they aren't really interested in - they might focus a bit for a few minutes of amusing roleplay or to kick in a door, but most of the time they are detached. For a player like this, a fighter is [I]perfect[/I] (and for the players who don't want to wait for the combat, a barbarian?). Of course satisfaction in the class is good. But what about the people who want to play a fighter AND engage in the non combat part? Now I'll fully admit, 5e really did help that with the backgrounds - they can be a very useful tool/lever to do this. But I think it should be a bit more. The ranger has those tools, but they are very specific to a certain flavor. [/QUOTE]
