[QUOTE="Wakrob, post: 4682272, member: 74017"] My DM has adopted the +1/2 lvl damage rule for about 2 months now. I play a rogue. I keep arguing that it hurts strikers because it narrows the % margin between my striker damage and the others. I have been asking for Strikers to get +lvl damage. I was hoping someone here might agree with me for some unbias support to my cause. My average damage with sneak attack combared our Halfling Fighter using a handaxe was 184%, now the new rule brings it down to 162%. A bigger fighter could easily have a bigger weapon than d6 but this Halfling also uses a odd feat from the Dragon gladiator article that lets him make a basic ranged attack after a Cleave (some fighting style) so that he actually averages more damage than me if they both hit. Anyone agree it would be more fair to give Strikers +lvl to other classes +1/2 lvl? Thanks Wak [/QUOTE]
