[QUOTE="Theory of Games, post: 9061784, member: 7042201"] I LOVE how you rockskipped over the obvious here. Wizards. There's NO BALANCE IN D&D. I keep telling people this over and over like Alex Jones screaming about the Federal Reserve. Any encounter is EASILY handled by a wizard with the right spells slotted. It's like vintage Mike Tyson vs. Napoleon Dynamite. Ugly. Ugly. Ugly. Stop dismissing the power of mages finally. What're going to do? Shoot em in the neck with an arrow? This is when the mage's player/GM says there's no hit locations in D&D. You got me in the neck. At best. Now go to sleep OR go crazy OR be my best friend and kill your friends you met to go into that hole in the ground called a dungeon. Mages rewrite player agency like bad game designers and there is NOTHING you can do about it. Not with D&D/DND. Despite Gygax's very best efforts wizards rule the game top to bottom. I know: I put my entire party to sleep because they wanted to go back to the dungeon when I had gold to spend. Uh. NO. I'll buy breakfast when you guys wake up. Off to IKEA!! YEAH!! Who can defy the will of someone who can defy reality itself? STOP TALKING ABOUT D&D AND BALANCE. Any scenario you create I can poopoo on and you know it. Wait?!?!? That guy has a sword?!?!? OH NO! Now I gotta loot another body of some guy who thought his +4 attacks actually MEANT SOMETHING when I can WHISPER nonsense words, wiggle my fingers and throw some junk from my pocket :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
