[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 4732270, member: 7006"] Why would a rogue enter melee? Probably because it's still easier to gain a melee CA from flanking (when you need only one ally) as opposed to a ranged CA from flanking (where you'd require two). And considering the whole rogue class was balanced around the fact that he [I]should[/I] be gaining CA probably 2/3rds of the time... all this is doing is making the ranged rogue's gaining of CA a bit more equitable compared to the melee. You as DM should not want to stop a rogue from gaining CA... you should be happy when he [I]can[/I]. And all these "why should Class X do this, when doing this other thing is so much better..." just make me roll my eyes. Not every player is a min/maxing wimp who needs his character to do maximum damage while taking none of his own. Yeah, some players might be that way... but not everyone is. So to erase the possibility completely by banning supposedly "broken" rules because you as DM don't want to see it happen is just really lame. [/QUOTE]
