[QUOTE="Alaxk Knight of Galt, post: 5345242, member: 4129"] This has not been my experience with Slayer. I'm currently playing a Thri'Kreen Slayer who uses spears in a Dark Sun game. During the first encounter alone, he threw a Javelin, charged with a Gouge, and broke out his Trident and Shield when he got separated from the defender. I think, for a Slayer, it is key to pick up different weapons for different situations. You need to have a defensive fall back set, an all out offensive set, and a ranged set of options. The class doesn't spell that out, but the mechanics support it. As for mobility and escaping from an unwanted combatant, what's wrong with the old shift+charge trick :D [/QUOTE]
