Take off every "Hivemind"! You know what you doing.

I understand how that goes. It does help to see an example of some things in play in RPGs I know I never got the point of Shadopwrun for instance by reading the books, but when I saw it in play a few times and saw how people did things it made sense to me.

This is also why I like reading the Dragon articles and such that talk about the basics about the classes. Sure, I know most of it, but sometimes they give ideas on how to play things differently. I'll probably play a Barbarian eventually (I want to at least try each class), so maybe I won't have a list of "class(es) I won't play".

Then don't make these classes that way. There is nothin "wussy-assed backline" about any of the classes or races, juust people who pegion hole them that way

I'm more a player of a front-line character. I like mine to be in the "thick of things". It's hard for me to play the "gotta stay in the back or get hurt quickly" wizard. That one is a "stretch" for me. All the rest have been strong "bruiser" types: fighters, paladins and clerics.

No Barbarians? If anyone has ideas on them, I"ll listen.

I just don't like the whole rage thing. It seems such a foriegn concept to most cultures I would call barbarians. There was a savage template somewhere that gave any other class illiteracy, more HP, fast movement and savage skill list. The problem is The rage ability is really the core ability of the class, and they are weakned with out it.

I play mostly casters, out of 8 3rd ed PCs only one has lacked magical talent.

Does anyone know anyone else that plays just Barbarian?

 

[Crothian]

nope, but people I game with usually play a wide variety of things and don't limit themselves to just one anything.

 

[Terath Ninir]

I dislike barbarians 'cause they are a munchkin class. The role itself -- berserker warrior -- is cool, but the class itself is just an excuse for DMs to make NPCs and monsters cheesily powerful.

 

[Crothian]

It seems that from the thread smost small races like halflings and gnomes are never really barbarians,. so I fail to see how the Munckins would take it. Can't really power attack while rages with a lollipop

But there is nothing mechanically wrong with the class.

Where is the fun in not doing that. Though I limit my characters to somehow crazy or mentally deficient ones, but that is just funny.
