[QUOTE="Charles Rampant, post: 6684666, member: 32659"] My party is at fifth level. They don't have plate mail, let alone magical platemail. Regardless, it seems to me that you have problems expressing your issue simply because it isn't an issue for most people. Sure, the Paladin doesn't get hit a lot. Sure, the other PCs get injured easily. Well, uh, yeah. That is the point of playing a squishy class. If you find that the monsters do so much damage as to instantly wipe out other PCs, then I suggest that you stop using such powerful monsters. I've repeatedly attacked the squishy members in my game with various monsters, and while they have often gone down as a result, nobody seemed to think that this was outside of expectations. Just as the tank not taking much damage was also not outside of expectations. Why is this situation outside of your expectations? You keep restating the same point, without really explaining why you find this situation so surprising or problematic. [/QUOTE]
