[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 6960251, member: 12731"] But now you're describing modern warfare, exactly the kind of tactics these changes are meant to do away with. I want D&D to support the notion of Badass the Barbarian manly striding towards the puny goblins, swatting aside their cowardly arrows. I don't want Badass the Barbarian acting like a SWAT trooper sprinting from cover to cover, using hand signals to direct team mates to flank the opposition. I want to bring back D&D to where effective archery was just expensive enough only one out of the four party members doing that build. The wizard also does range, of course; but the cleric and fighter are strictly "range 30" builds, meaning the "center of gravity" of the party as a whole remains squarely with the melee'ers. I'm not posting this to tell you "you're wrong", MP, you're not. You're just using something as a solution that I see as the problem. [/QUOTE]
