[QUOTE="Mercule, post: 3061512, member: 5100"] Various replies: The fighter started at a 16 str. He used 4th level point to buy con up. There are no clerics, so no buffing spells. The druid slots for summoning, damage, and healing. Both the fighter and elf net out at one AC lower than they would under RAW (full plate +1 and chain shirt +1). The fighter has DR 4/- and the elf has DR 2/-. We also use Weapon Groups (from UA), so the EWP for each character is basically free (neither one can use any blunt weapons well, but that doesn't put them on uneven ground). You're correct that Swashbuckler doesn't give Expertise. I meant Finesse. She has Expertise, also, though, so that is her full list of feats. When they finish looting from their current encounter, the fighter will have gauntlets of ogre power, which is an par with the elf's gloves. The fighter already has Imp Crit, which makes his range 19-20/x4 vs. the elf's 15-20 (keen sword). The next step from PHB2 for the fighter requires lvl 12. Melee Weapon Mastery doesn't look like it does much, in itself. Am I missing something? Hmm... I'm also thinking I need to run some numbers. The fighter did 104 damage on his singular crit last session. Meanwhile, the elf did 60ish total in a series of three successive crits. I'm thinking there may be more perception than reality, here.
