[QUOTE="MeepoTheMighty, post: 1574545, member: 3216"] 100 points of damage for a TWENTIETH level character, on a crit? Was he blind? Missing both arms? Honestly, that's not powergaming by any stretch of the imagination. I think you're just set in 2E thinking that tells you "100 is a big number," without really understanding what 20th level characters are capable of. A Balor (CR 20) has 290 hit points, and DR 15. If this guy is doing 100 points on a crit, that means 50 (or 33, depending on the weapon) on a regular attack - that's what, 8 to 10 rounds to kill an equal CR monster? Would you expect a 1st level character to take 8 to 10 rounds to kill an orc? What was the rest of the party doing at 20th level? Did wizards not cast 9th level spells because they'd be "powergaming?" I really think the onus is on you to show us some stats, because I can't see how this player could possibly be the munchkin you make him out to be. [/QUOTE]
