As a player I would have been seething dragging this PC around wasting resources on him while we he contributed nothing to the party. The game is supposed to about a team of people working together to overcome obstacles. This type of character is just as bad as munchkin or spot light hog because they are not a team player.This would sorely test my role playing skills. How do you justify having this dead weight with the party other then the metagame reason that he is player at the table?  As to the original topic some prestige classes are badly written. As a DM I will often change the requirements if I think it makes sense for the character to have this class added.</blockquote>
