[QUOTE="Darklone, post: 1418115, member: 1372"] Right. One on one they are a little weak (as long as tumble and a polearm or other reach weapon are not used), but in a team... I had a group with one human bbn2/rog5, a human ftr4/rog3, a dwarven ftr4/rog3 and a halforc bbn3/rog4... among others. The dwarf was a tank build (Con 20 in a low ability game) in heavy armour with doubleweapon and defensive fighting styles. The two humans both used tumble and spring attack with greatsword and spiked chain for devastating sneak attacks (flanking with the dwarf who enjoyed the full attacks with his TWF style) while the halforc... well. He usually delayed and charged at some prone opponent with full Power Attack. The human ftr/rog saw his char as a swashbuckler (and dropped the greatsword later for a rapier) but he would have never taken the CW class. Every single one of them was not as strong as a singleclass build, but all of them together worked pretty nicely... Especially with the two fireball slingers from behind. Ah well. Iron Will. Everyone planned to take it ;) [/QUOTE]
