[QUOTE="Storyteller01, post: 2229401, member: 20931"] Not quite. Other classes are naturally better at weapons and armor. Spellcaster's rarely increase their combat viability with either (how often does the wizard get the longsword/full plate +5?). But use magic to increase a fighter's survivabilty? Certainly! A rogue with a ring of armor, or leather +5 A fighter with artifact level sword, armor and shield can last a while against a spellcaster. It's worse if the artifacts are designed to kill spellcasters. A bard witj an intelligent violin? As has been mentioned in other threads, many creatures published can't be defeated without all members of a party haviing access to some type of magic. Try playing a magic free campaign. It's great, requires of certain level of creativity, but your damage potential is nowhere closs to what's possible with magic weapons. Really, think about it. When someone on this site asks for a build of some kind, how many propose said build WITHOUT levels in magic user or with a plethera of magic equipment? [/QUOTE]
