[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 5508743, member: 2067"] No, you forgot "None of the above." Also, you forgot to stop telling me what I think. There's a reason I'm a big fan of Essentials. Part of the reason? One of my huge criticisms of 4e was that the powers system was a samey mess. A Slayer is a far, far different beast than a Sorcerer, but they're pretty much on equal footing, without the Slayer doing anything more magical than swinging a sword (and dealing ROCKSTAR damage). There's much more you can do with this, too. I said 4e was a step in the right direction, not The Best Solution For Everyone. You're lumping everyone together, you're oversimplifying, and you're not listening to what I'm actually saying. This makes it very, very difficult to have a constructive conversation.
