[QUOTE="Tayne, post: 5733275, member: 6685115"] You're equivocating harder than I've ever seen anyone equivocate. Initially you defined a striker ability as the ability to do lots of damage and stated that sneak attack was the only example of this... then you state that, because it has limitations (5/day) smite evil isn't a striker mechanic... well - A) Sneak attack has limitations too, you can't necessarily do it every single round and you definitely can't do it at all versus a wide array of opponents B) I'm familiar enough with 4E to know that there are striker mechanics with X per Y limitations as well, and that does not prevent them from being considered striker mechanics. Then you seem to admit that spellcasters (against which it sounds as if you have a bizarre grudge) "step on everybody else's role," presumably including strikers. So... I guess sneak attack isn't the only "striker mechanic" in 3E? Wouldn't it be easier to just say "Oops I guess I mis-spoke?" Are you capable of that? [/QUOTE]
