A fellow PC in my group has a barbarian with Spring Attack. Sure, he had to give up some other things (like armor), but he is SO mobile in combat.
His usual tactic is to move up to an opponent, chop him, then move away. Far away. With 40 ft. of movement, he can often move into a position where opponent's can't even charge him (around corners and such). This more than makes up for his lousy armor class. It also means he is less of a sheild for the rest of the party, but with one cleric and one paladin in plate armor, we mannage.
I used to think Spring Attack was pretty lousy, but I was thinking halfling rogues or plate-armored warriors. Barbarians add a new dimension to the trick.
I'm not complaining or anything, just pointing out a clever combat manuver. Call it homage.
Anyone has any similar combos that work really well?
