[QUOTE="iserith, post: 7306945, member: 97077"] It seems like you want to drag disagreements and grievances from other threads into this one. Even if that's not the case, I would say your claim is unfounded as I pointed out in those other threads (as I recall): I endeavor to couch those as "potential drawbacks" or words to that effect because that is how it is explained in the DMG and wherever possible I try to align my language with what the rules books say. The DMG mentions no drawbacks for the "Middle Path" and, for that reason and others that I hope I've made evident, I chose that method. That doesn't mean drawbacks don't exist for certain people or groups, though for my part I have found none. So far as I can tell, the drawbacks that have been asserted by others appear to be due in part to legacy thinking that is not supported by the books for this edition of the game. And thinking and playing in such a manner isn't wrong if that is what a given group prefers. It's not what I prefer, however, and that's okay. My means of resolution is not objectively better than another - it's a preference. If that was not clear to you in my many similar posts prior to this one, I hope that it is now. On that note, this line of discussion does not to me seem pertinent to the topic of this thread except in very abstract ways.
