[QUOTE="Faolyn, post: 8816643, member: 6915329"] When you say, "this is a bad design," you are saying that objectively. If you truly thought your belief that it's poor design was subjective, then you would not have argued with people who had ideas about how to use it. You would have ignored them or said "well, I wouldn't use it anyway because I think it's dumb" But by saying that other people are using it wrong for adding things to it, or using it in a way you wouldn't (like my idea or making them the chariot wheels for a godling, which didn't add anything to them at all), then you [I]are [/I]saying your beliefs are the objectively correct ones and everyone else is wrong. And quite frankly, [I]lots [/I]of DMs rarely or [I]never [/I]use monsters straight out of the book, but instead change the stats and add and remove abilities as desired, so saying that adding things to a monster somehow invalidates the idea that the monster isn't bad is just... pointless. You'd be saying that a huge number of DMs are playing the game wrong, rather than playing the game the way the books actually suggest. [/QUOTE]
