[QUOTE="Switchback, post: 4352886, member: 69793"] Wow. The PH is more clear about this than I expected. Here is the wording, P.277 What would 'all your movement modes' be if not things like charging, running, double moves. Those are all the different movement modes I would think, the speed of 2 applies to all of them. It can't be increased. I think you overvalue 2 damage (from CoD, unless yours does more). But each party is different. I have a party of 4 with 2 strikers and they can put out so much more DPR than me each round to the point I would far rather have the Illusory Ambush +2/3 bonus to hitting Will for most creatures (especially brutes, solo's, soldiers, elites) and helping my defender out by slapping the -2 attack penalty. This is why I said the low level control options were less than impressive. Does a striker only strike with his dailies and encounters? No, things like Sneak Attack, Hunter's Quarry, let them do their job every round. Does a defender not defend with his AT-Wills? A class called a controller that uses At-Wills up to around 80% of the time should not be only able to control well on Encounter's and Dailies. [/QUOTE]
