[QUOTE="Dracomeander, post: 2275179, member: 20009"] Is that character's survival due to him being a psion or to him being an excellent player? How do his characters do when he plays another type of character? In the groups I game with this phenomenon is seen frequently as the players like myself who are seen to be better survive encounters that the other do not. More often than not, it is due to the nature of the player than the class. IME, I find the fighter/melee specialists to be the most vulnerable to frequent character death compared to other classes irregardless of player competance simply because they put themselves in harm's way more often. Survivability of the other classes seems to be more heavily weighted toward play style and player competance. [/QUOTE]
