[QUOTE="GX.Sigma, post: 6018140, member: 6690511"] It was interesting to answer these. My answers to 1 and three were that the wizard sucks at that stuff, so the commoners should easily win. But my answer to [URL=http://www.enworld.org/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=2]#2[/URL] was that the fighter should be totally able to do it, because as an experienced adventurer he has to be better at this stuff than he was at the start of his career. He's not necessarily more dextrous, but his experience allows him to do it better. But that cast doubt on my wizard answers. A Wiz 20 has lots of experience being in fights, so why wouldn't he be better in a knife-fight than a Wiz 1? Here are some more to think about: [LIST=1] [*]You are a normal man, and a wizard casts [I]hold person [/I]on you. Should it be harder to escape a greater wizard's [I]hold[/I]? [*]Who has a better chance of taking down a rampaging dragon: an army of militiamen, or a small group of highly trained combatants? Which answer would make more sense in terms of a realistic world? Which would make more sense in terms of a fictional story? Which would make more sense in terms of a game? Are they the same? [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
