[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9619804, member: 7030563"] No it doesn't. A Fighter that is swinging a Maul with an 18 strength at level 5 is doing 4d6+8 (20.5) A Vex-Nick fighter dual wielder is doing 3d6+12 (22.5) A sword and board dueling Fighter is doing 2d8+12 (21). A Rogue is doing 1d8+3d6+4 (18.5). With truestrike it would be 22, still less than a top damage fighter. This is without considering feats that substantially increase the Fighter damage, while feats only marginally increase the Rogues damage. And this is only part of the story. On top of doing more damage total in the white room, splitting the damage among more attacks also means more damage delivered due to "smaller bites" and more attacks means more uses of weapon mastery. On top of this the fighter has a higher AC, more hit points, action surge and is better at ability checks. At level 5 a Fighter has the Rogue generally outclassed in all 3 pillars and in the combat pillar specifically the only thing the Rogue has going for it is better mobility. [/QUOTE]
