[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 8595688, member: 50987"] I guess it would depend on why the DM felt the need to "nerf" my character. Like, if she's trying to prevent me from exploiting some ridiculous power loop ala PunPun, or keep me from hogging the action from all the other players at the table, I'm not going to grumble about it. It's odious when people try to "break the game" like that. But if she just didn't like the ability out-of-hand, and decided that particular ability doesn't exist in her campaign? Yeah, I'm not going to grumble about that either, because it's her game setting and I trust her judgment. The game is supposed to be fun for the DM too. But if she's just trying to be mean and punish me for not bringing cookies to the gaming session even after I promised I would and instead made up some B.S. excuse about "the store ran out" or whatever? I'm probably not going to grumble about that either, because fair enough: everyone is supposed to chip in for snacks and nobody likes a freeloader. Sorry, lost my train of thought. I guess my point is, I don't really complain a lot about my character's abilities. If my DM has an issue with one or more of my character's abilities, we talk about it and come to a decision. Sometimes that decision is "Eldritch Blast is over-used and everyone is getting annoyed with it, please pick a different Invocation" and that's fair. [/QUOTE]
