[QUOTE="Oni, post: 1329163, member: 380"] I'm not saying that every character needs and equal share of the spot light every moment of every game, and I'm not saying that every character needs to be equally effective in every single situation. What I am saying is when one character is repeatedly more effective in one situation than all the others, that isn't fun. When one character is able to become the "star" 9 out of 10 games because they're able to handle everything before anyone else can, that isn't fun. Imagine you have a 10th level barbarian and a 5th level fighter. The barb is pretty much always going to be the star of the show simply because he'll be better at everthing the fighter does, and the fighter will never have a chance to shine short of completely removing the barbarian from the picture. That isn't fun. If class A can do the job of class B + whatever else class A does, why bother with class B? [/QUOTE]
