[QUOTE="Veritas, post: 1786400, member: 24638"] See, that's the thing... the Constitution explanation text specifically mentions rangers and paladins getting the extra bonus hit points, and it specifically mentions them as subclasses of fighter, however the Strength explanation text ONLY mentions fighters. Oh, I'll clarify that every group I ever played with, right from when I started playing AD&D (around 1981), has used exceptional strength for fighters, rangers and paladins. It's on that on a couple of other forums, people with just as much experience (or more) have said that they only allowed it for fighters. It was supposed to be a balancing factor for the fighter, since the ranger and paladin got so much more in the ways of abilities (and they thought that this wasn't really compensated by the added experience you had to earn as one of the subclasses). I still believe in giving exceptional strength to all three... I'm just curious if there is the same kind of split here. heh. [/QUOTE]
