The CORE of the Matter

[Voadam]

Four current games.

Main one, core ranger and wizard before prcs (both core and non core prcs).

pbp druid with UA spontaneous casting, count it as core.

pbp barbarian but may convert to some racial levels as the campaign adopts 2.0 version of WoW.

pbp straight bard

I'm still seeing more core than non-core in my games, but that is mostly due to the non-core classes being so specialized. The psionic classes have been the most popular of the non-core in play but I've heard a lot of enthusiasm over the Warlock, Scout, and Marshall.

Let's see, in my tabletop 3e/3.5e games I've played

A cleric/loremaster. (3e)
A ranger/rogue. (3e)
A psion. (XPH)
A scout. (CAdv)
And I'm currently playing a rogue. (3.5e)

So slightly more core than non-core.

I don't even allow prestige classes when I DM.

 

[Mercule]

I play just about whatever I feel fits the mood. Oh. BTW...the spirit shaman blows.

Amen to both of those.

I've got a Spirit Shaman in my game, right now and I really, really want to include fey, spirits, etc. But they are just bloody hard to use for my campaign's metaplot that's been planned for a very long time. Shaman is like the Ranger's favored enemy, except even moreso.

I wish I could figure out some way to have the PC switch to Druid (at 7th level), retroactively, without interupting suspension of disbelief.
