[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1704630, member: 5777"] Hey cat, I respect your opinion as well ;) But I definately think that many feel it is a weak class, or that it is only good for a few levels before going into your real class. Both of those say the same thing, just in slightly different fashions. Rangers 'got the shaft' because all of their abilities happened at first level but gained almost nothing later on. Fighters are close to the same way in either edition, it just isnt as noticeable because people tend to dip into the class anyway. If it does not wind up being weak in your games I'd love to know why. Do you pull in lots of sources for feats and allow pc's to create their own? That would help, although not quite enough. Do you give them skill points or something else to flesh them out more? I know that your game has a bit of intrigue here and there ;) Must be really bad for fighters who have no skill points and whose abilities are all combat related, but are overshadowed by others. Unless of course the other pc's are generally not combat oriented in nature, which means comparing a weak pc who is combat oriented to those who are purposefully not combat oriented.. and that isnt useful. Still though, this thread is about which the player should play. Psychic warrior all the way, there is still hope for him. [/QUOTE]
