[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7110408, member: 12731"] Yeah, people keep saying that, but I think it's a mixture of old habits, a wishlist, and nostalgia. Have you truly taken a step back and objectively considered the pros and cons of the slow axe dwarf? That is, looking at the build with no preconceived notion of what would be cool and what makes sense in the campaign. Only looking at it with cold calculating eyes? The advantages of staying a melee builds are extremely small. The restrictions on ranged are essentially non existent, once you take SS and CE into account. At the same time, Monster Manual entries simply assume the same old melee-centric game; most monsters are hopelessly outmatched if you deny them melee. 5th edition is doing much less to ensure a melee-centric game than any previous edition I know of.
