[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 7562944, member: 6795602"] The data I’m referring to is the circle graphs they provided us. If the title is wrong, then The title being wrong makes that circle graph, that I refer to as data, inaccurate. If you mean the dataset that is based on, I don’t claim that is inaccurate. If you mean what they finally stated the subclass chart was actually showing, I don’t think that is inaccurate compared to their claim of what it shows either. I do think they can claim it represents something that is different than what the title claims it represents. The below is bit of a side point to the above point but, Even after their clarification I think the methodology used only means the graph presented basically just shows that clerics are a free class, that life cleric is the only free subclass for cleric and that clerics get there subclass at level 1. That’s what the subclass graph seems to be showing IMO. Or maybe I should more accurately say it’s plausible that’s all the graph is showing and so that highly devalues the graph even as an interesting factoid in a conversation about player preferences. Im replying on my phone and it’s difficult to split quotes up as needed. I’ll add more later [/QUOTE]
