Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nail" data-source="post: 3189563" data-attributes="member: 224">For the Ftr vs. WB comparison, that's a very minor issue.  Fourth level isn't much different, 11th level isn't much different, etc.  If you'd like, I invite you to post other WBs at other levels.Because they're the ability score generation method in play in my game.  I thought I made that obvious.The WB does not really suffer from M.A.D.. A higher Int is nice, but not required, as the maneuvers don't have saving throws which depend on Int.  All the rest of the ability scores favor a Ftr and WB equally.I'm afraid with this statement and those above you're starting to reveal a distinct lack of understanding of the issues at hand.  You know that WB's don't use missile weapons for manuevers, right?  And that the only missile weapons they are proficient with are those that are also melee weapons?  Etc.Not at all; that's why both the Ftr and the WB are focused on the same thing: Being really good with a Greataxe.  That's entirely the point of a comparison: keep as many things as possible the same between two different approaches.I suspect you might learn a great deal by posting a 6th level Warblade, focused on a Greataxe (so as to compare to those I posted).  Along with that work up a 6th level Ftr; keep as much as is reasonable the same between them.  Go for it!</blockquote>
