[QUOTE="Belen, post: 1770906, member: 1405"] It's freaky how much we agree in this thread. Are we clones? Elder: Why isn't the mage or the cleric casting shield of faith or mage armor on their party members? It's a team effort, so as a team, the casters should look to some level of support for the non-casters, especially in a low equipment campaign. Are all casters in LG having a me first attitude etc? Not to mention that a fighter 4-6 can easily have spring attack. This is very effective in hit and run tactics with tough opponents. And, a GM can make a low equipment campaign scale to the level of the party. No serious items, then fight ogres rather than trolls etc. LG players tend to be optimizers. So yes, with low equipment, then expect some optimization for combat. With the right equipment, they optimize in a different way. LG is far more a tactical wargame, than a RPG, so LG players need standard wealth or multi-classing because combat is what they do and CR/EL for their level is what they face. A GM has no leeway and must run standard stuff. Not too mention that LG people rarely play in formal groups, so of course they are "me first." They want the character to survive to play in the next module. I just do not think LG a good example. I could be wrong though. :) [/QUOTE]
