[QUOTE="Drawmack, post: 391400, member: 4981"] [color=white] I personally leave the core classes alone (except for limiting the magic system for a moderate magic setting). I don't personally find any of the classes weaker or stronger then any of the other classes they are just good at different things. For example stick a rogue in hand to hand with a BBEG and see what happens. On the other hand stick a fighter or a wizard in a dungeon loaded with traps and puzzles and see what happens. Stick a druid on a dungeon crawl that lasts months, where they can't use most of their spells and see what happens. Stick that same druid in a forest. The classes are specialized not unbalanced.
