[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 5127133, member: 115"] I've had two very different experiences with Dailies. My first group, in which I was a player, was very defensively oriented. We only have three players - I was a Wizard, others were a Cleric and a Fighter. None of us were really great at dealing out damage, but we were also tough as hell to actually wear down. In this instance, we tended to use roughly one daily per encounter, especially once we got more than one. My second group, of which I'm the DM, is an Avenger, a Ranger, and a Bard. [I]Loads[/I] of strikery-goodness, and most definitely a reaction to the previous group. Lots of damage (Executioner's Axe on the Avenger, Greatbow on the Ranger), [I]lots[/I] of re-rolls, extra dice, and situational bonuses. I'm finding that they're tearing through enemies even with their Encounter powers. So thus far they haven't used a single Daily. I'm hoping the dragon changes that... ;) My point with this is that I think Daily use is very dependent on the group you have. Daily powers, by their very nature, tend towards being Striker-y. Groups with high-damage output will tend to use them less, and groups with low-damage output will tend to use them more. [/QUOTE]
