[QUOTE="DwarvenMongoose, post: 5178774, member: 90073"] Thanks a lot for your advice. I don't really know if we will be able to retrain more than once a level, but I may suggest it to the group. I'm not that worried about the lack of a leader - I just learned another player will join us, and the DM is trying hard to convice him to play a leader - problem solved! You are right, as it as been pointed out by almost everybody, I plan way too far ahead. As I said, I'm not so rigid, I just wanted to get a general if abstract feeling of the game and was having fun just looking at options. I don't expect to follow this build as written, but just get a sense of direction. I am really thrilled to see how a fighter is a better defender than a paladin - reading the books, I felt the other way was true! Seems I have a lot to learn. We may allow other books to enter the game later, when we feel at ease with the system. For some players, it's their first experience not only with 4e, but with D&D in general (they played other rpgs, but none as complex as 3.5/4) so we don't want to put too much pressure on them to read all books and learn about a billion feats and powers in order to be able to balance with the other characters. So we chose to restrict ourselves. Saturday... seems so far away ;-) [/QUOTE]
