[QUOTE="Teflon Billy, post: 1404582, member: 264"] I mostly dislike spellcasting classes in my game, as it is one of those "Low Magic campaigns that suck" ;) I'm pretty stingy with magic items, which tends to really, [i]really[/i] ramp up the spellcasting classes effectiveness (As they get to choose a minimum of two new spells every level). I mostly like games about barbarians, fighters, rogues and my own variant ranger and variant cleric. There's no place for Monks, and preciouslittle for Paladins (though there are NPC Paladins...they are a scary order that hew a little closer to "Law" than "Good" unlike the standard D&D Paladin who seems to pay more attention to Good than Law as a rule). All of that said, I would never bother allowing someone to play a Monk just so I could screw them over; though I've lost count of the people who want to play a spellcaster "for RP reasons" (Bull:):):):))...they always seemed to hear the words "low Magic" and decide that they needed to screw with [I]me[/I] by playing magic-based characters.
