I think Wizards balances classes using damage on a single target nova over 3 rounds.

[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9062697, member: 7030563"] Ok, to start with this presumes it is broken and that "fixing" it would make it better, which I don't believe and which you certainly haven't proven. I think it is meeting the things most people want when they play it. It certainly meets the needs I want when I play it. I think there is a small minority of players who are upset over the mechanics want to change the fighter class to be more competitive with the best classes in the game, but I think those are a minority. Also to go back to your statement theme is important and implementation is of [I]"little importance"[/I]. If it is of little importance to the fans of ffighters then at its very best [I]"little"[/I] to gain by fixing it, but at its worst attempted fixes could destroy the class for many. If mechanics are of little importance and the class in fact needs to be "fixed" (something I do not agree with) then logic would dictate it is the theme that needs to be changed for any sort of significant improvement for the masses, not the implementation which is by your admission largely irrelevant anyway. People overlooking alleged problems that by your own admission are not important. One of my shoelaces is frayed at the end and has been for a year. This is an undeniable problem, however fixing my shoelace is of little value as my shoes still fit, they can still be tied, they still work well. It is not worth driving to walmart to buy a new lace. If the sole was missing, or for that matter if they looked bad, or if the things that matter were wrong with it, then it would be worth fixing my shoes. BOTTOM LINE: If implementation is of[I] "little value"[/I] to people who enjoy playing the class then there is little to be potentially gained in [I]"fixing"[/I] it for them. They are already happy. Meanwhile there are many who do not want the kind of [I]"fixes"[/I] you would implement and many who do not want the fighter changed, especially those playing other classes that see the theme of the fighter being 2nd tier and support. Those people will be hurt a lot because you are screwing with the theme, making Fighters superman or whatever so they can compete with someone who casts Wish, who by all rights, they should not be competing with. Meanwhile most of the fighter players will not gain much because these changes are not important to them. [/QUOTE]
