The classes are balanced (more or less) assuming the book level of magic items / money to buy them. At mid to high levels, fighter types are MUCH more dependant on gear. Casters get more and more spells to protect them and help them do damage. Fighters are assumed to have more and more gear to do the same.If you take away gear, you have to lower the spells too or the game favors casters (and monks) horribly. A 9th level fighter without magic armor is like a 9th level mage with only second level spells. He’s mid level, but he can’t deal damage / protect himself as a 9th level PC should. If your DM really is set on nerfing fighters, I would have to go Vow of Poverty (fight imbalance with imbalance). After he let’s in VoP, take forsaker. That’ll teach him!If all else fails, I recommend the craft route. Take a few ranks in craft (armorsmithing) and get the DM to let you ‘have made’ a suite of armor (half price). Maybe even the craft wondrous item feat to make stuff cheap (or better yet, craft weapons and armor when you can take it). If you don’t have gear, you’re going to die if you aren’t a caster, monk, or forsaker (maybe others).    -Tatsu</blockquote>
