[QUOTE="Mav, post: 2950259, member: 42321"] Evey class can be deemed overpowered if used properly with the proper set of equipment. We have a rogue in our group that at level 16 has the potential in 1 round (of course if he gets up behind the creature) to do something like 300-400 damage with a full attack. He's using a 2h greatsword so he gets the str bonus x 1.5, his sword is viscious, flaming, ice... so basically 1 of his 3 attacks hits you for: 2d6 weapon damage 2d6 Viscious damage 1d6 Fire damage 1d6 Cold damage 8d6 sneak attack damage Power attack + Str Bonus x 1.5 for 2hander total: approx. 95 damage cap per attack and all of that is without a crit, and with a single strike.. that's more damage than my level 16 sorc can put out with most of her spells. And he gets 2 more attacks to match the one above... watch out when he gets haste =P My sorcerer however, can hit numberous targets for a decent amount simultaneously. So each class has it's benefit. We also have a dervish in our campaign, and he owned until the rogue showed up and showed him how to do some real damage... [/QUOTE]
