[QUOTE="buzzard, post: 259763, member: 3003"] Honestly Edena, I believe that you have not really proved your thesis to any extent. You proved some other issues. First, yes 5/5/5 drow females in 2nd edition were quite badass. This is because 2nd Ed. multi-class characters were broken. They were well past broken in fact. Third has done a nice job of fixing this IMHO. Secondly when you have made the case that a party of 5 5/5/5 drow in 3rd would wipe out a party of 12th level chracters (7 of them so party level of 13 or so), you are merely stating an expected outcome. Five 15th level drow makes for an encounter level of about 19-20, which would be expected to exterminate that party. If you set up a reasonable encounter level, yes the drow could be challenging due to home turf, but it would not be a walkover. While your case may be somewhat valid in 2nd Ed. (though people have exposed some major flaws), it falls apart almost completely when 3rd is used. Then again there are few who do not recognize deficiencies in 2nd ed. Buzzard [/QUOTE]
