I mean presumably the designers would have considered the math is completely broken as they do it for a living and the game playing public only took 5 to 6 whole nanoseconds to determine it was indeed stupid. And it does occupy a very significant proportion of your hymnal compared to what disarm has got in any previous edition, or even this one as a fighter power.Not that I'm in favour of a disarm mechanic mind.Just that I'm not sure saying that designers probably don't actually any special insight or indeed have tested their system, given the issues with the skill system. Despite the claim to professionalism (though they did a good job with layout etc and I think the quality of the book as a physical object is reasonable), one might be given to assume that while they do have some insight, their insight does not apply to all cases and they may not have fully considered the implications or otherwise, as we have some reasonably solid evidence that they did not fully consider the implications or otherwise of some material that was published.Edit: To give another example of balatant no consideration is careful attack being almost always worse than a basic attack.</blockquote>
