[QUOTE="The_Fan, post: 5184290, member: 11607"] In any system, there are going to be bits that don't make sense. I'm not talking about things that are broken or over/underpowered. I'm talking about things that just make you go "Huh?" Some of these are likely to come up in-game, and are well known (the prone gelatinous cube, for example). Those aren't corner cases because they're likely to pop up during normal operating conditions. A true corner case is one that requires an almost deliberate setup for it to ever apply in-game. Example: Dispelling the fighter. There is only one martial power that creates a zone, called Line in the Sand (Fighter Utility 6). Dispel magic works by removing conjurations or zones. A fighter with Line in the Sand facing an NPC wizard (or vice verse) can draw his line, make his challenge, and have the wizard zap it away. I imagine they both might be a bit confused by this.
