[QUOTE="Irda Ranger, post: 3866860, member: 1003"] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"The Human fighter picked an ability that lets him do strength damage even if he misses."[/COLOR] The gamist rationalization hurts my brain. [COLOR=DarkOrange]The warlock can EXPLODE(??), CAUSE MENTAL ANGUISH and then teleport away, and also point at a guy and just keep PUSHING him around.[/COLOR] Possibly called "Crown of Madness." [COLOR=DarkOrange]Gnome Racial Ability: yell at squirrels.[/COLOR] Get off my lawn! [B]I'm[/B] the Gnome here! [COLOR=DarkOrange]Warlock: Ranged guy, with Melee solutions; more DPS than most other classes (Striker!)[/COLOR] Dru-[B]id![/B] Dru-[B]id![/B] Daddy needs a new Controller!
