Using just the cleric class and player’s hand book my home game GM would shake her head in disbelief.And I won’t even get started on what happened when she let everyone in the campaign start using any WoTC book (because she said that 3rd party books where broken) Needless to say she had to include “PCDs” in her home game (Peter Control Devices) because thanks to magic item creation, the right PHB spells, and some out of the box thinking…. I would crack almost any combat she presented us with.I cannot tell you how many times I sat in on a table and saw how the players were not working together.  the cleric would never have GMW or MV prepped for the fighter, hell you have any idea how many players overlook spells like Hero’s Feast? The characters would not use “one mech” strategy, and the rouges would always forget to flank... so on.Sit in on a RPGA high level table once or twice… the brokenness of 3e becomes clearly apparent.  I have seen characters running around with +48 strength, using force cage as a spell like ability, and even turning the entire table into some crazy strike team (wand of invisibility, stone of silence, fly).. and lets not even start with the super undead turning clerics that can dust almost any undead they face.A lot of GMs who love 3e never had to deal with a “power gamer”, but for those of us who have, 4e is a nice addition, and we hope, will fix a lot of issues 3e has.</blockquote>
