D&D 3E/3.5 Level Equivalents for 3.5 Core Classes

Agreed 100%, but I will say a meat shield is always more appreciated than a mosquito (someone who is hard to damage, but flits around adding almost nothing of use).

One must float like a butterfly, and sting like a bee.

But at any level the Cleric, Wizard, and Rogue are happy to have the fighter along in case that monster makes the save or doesn't die right off the bat Everyone loves a good meat shield!

There's enough no-save, no-SR spells around that, at higher levels of play, this simply doesn't hold up anymore. Furthermore, summons and bindings can easily provide casters with meatshields who're even more expendable than the party Fighter.

That's simply not true. Summons do not leave WBL appropriate gear after they are finished.

You let your party fighter carry some of YOUR loot? Whyever would you do that?
