Message: <blockquote data-quote="Victim" data-source="post: 3193473" data-attributes="member: 78">Yeah, so far the class has been working well for us too.  It believes rather like a more conventional self buffing fighter mage in capability, but without a massive stack of buffs - the spell channeling makes up for the lack of normal buffs.  That keeps things more easily manageable.  Also, the way their full attack channeling works encourages some more usual tactics.There might be a problem area right around 3rd to 5th when the DB can channel spells and buff for lots of relative damage: +8d6 with shocking grasp and blade of blood on top of whatever melee goodness the DB can dish out might be too much damage at level 5.  But then their spell damage stops increasing so rapidly.  Good thing I haven't been comparing warblades to just single class fighters then.  Really, fighter is just a weird class.  Simple class abilities.  Pretty simple to play.  But in between is a big mess that requires the player to develop an ever expanding combination of items and feats from day 1 with no real do-overs.  And many fighter characters don't really have enough decent feat to support that kind of expansion over the long term.  That fighter concept that worked so well at levels 1-4 might suck at level 10; most other character types aren't going to become obselete as levels increase.Yeah, d4 classes do really come up short in HP.  That's why Con seems to be their stat priority right after INT.</blockquote>
