[QUOTE="Pauln6, post: 9438315, member: 6777422"] All fighters can benefit from intelligence but so can any other class. If you are boosting intelligence, you are likely decreasing other stats that have more generic benefits to fighters (wisdom or charisma for perception or interaction skills). I think the issue is more, I can see a tangible benefit for fighter wisdom; I don't see any corresponding benefits for intelligence, so how can you simulate better tactical awareness? The answer for some is improved tactical options. Bards were getting unjustified Jack of all trades to initiative for a while and it didn't break combat. Rogues have no strong reason to invest in intelligence either so its unlikely that multiclass dips would be unbalanced if worded like Unarmoured defence to avoid stacking. Maybe you could add intelligence bonus to strength and dex saves in melee at higher levels. [/QUOTE]
