[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 8078743, member: 6795602"] [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Small correction made above. I would say this particular combo does alot of damage. However, I would say that other combinations relying on allies casting buffs like bless also enable the same combo even without precision attack. That to me says the high damage really stems from sharpshooter as most all those other buffs and combinations are mostly fine without it. That said, all this is assuming you consider that the fighter being the damage king is an issue in the first place. It's arguable that he needs the higher damage to really be balanced with other classes. So I personally I'm not trying to make the claim it needs removed - just that we need to understand just how much damage this is actually doing - especially compared to classes that don't use feats for damage.[/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]5e is very forgiving. You don't need optimal builds to perform well. But when you have an optimized build in with a bunch of non-optimized builds it's very noticeable.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
