[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 7253449, member: 15700"] For the record, and I've brought this up before, one of my favorite characters in 1e was a halfling fighter/thief. When I converted him to 5e, he is a straight fighter with the criminal background and dungeon delver and skulker feats. In play, he feels exactly the same as he did in 1e as a fighter/thief. Just as "thiefy" as the 5e rogues Oh, I take that back. he does feel different. Now, if the rolls go bad and I get discovered in a bad place, I can take and deal much more punishment than my 1e f/t version could. Now? He literally walks softly and carries a big stick. ;) So this idea that fighters aren't competent in other areas doesn't jive with my experiences at all. Even without feats, I'd have another +2 bonus to DEX with those ASIs and be even better at stealth checks than I am with feats. [/QUOTE]
