Round Vii Is Over

[Crothian]

POWERFUL ATTACK (Power Attack: OVERRATED! To the XTREME! It's only good for melee monkeys, and only then when your foe is the broad side of a barn. Anything with a high AC, and it's useless.)

It is only meant for melee attacks, that's like saying Rapid shot is bad becasue it is only meant for ranged combat. Or that Wizards are bad becasue they cast spells. You are blaming the feat for doing what it does, everything is guilty of that.

Manyshot, Point Blank Shot, Spell Focus...

...but what I really want to vote for is POWER ATTACK!

It's not BAD, it's just OVERRATED. There's a difference.

I'm blaming the feat for only being useful to a limited subset of character types. True, a lot of feats do that. But I'd blame them all for that, too. That doesn't mean they're BAD, it just means that they aren't the BEST. And this contest is about getting rid of those that aren't the best, right?

ya, but by those standards I'd guess that there are still at least a dozen worse.

And PA has immunity

I can't believe some one I know and trust (online) nominated Ride-by-Attack. I feel violated.

Gee, with so many people picking that feat I wonder just whom you could be talking about

Yeah, I singled it out before I read about the immunity. But I'll take the wasted vote as proper punishment.

And there is still a dozen worse, but the fact that it got so much support means that I'd like it out so that people can throw their support behind a feat that REALLY desrves it!

I understand, I'd have voted it out too if it didn't get that stupid immunity thing....
