If a swordmage marks it, and it's alone, the swordmage likely just dies since he has no way to _unmark_ it. At least a paladin can choose to shift a square back and second wind, to make his challenge drop.It has no ranged attacks. No reactions. No ways to deal with immobilize or slow with its all melee attacks - it's just mean to melee characters, and trivial for ranged characters, and nothing to move PCs, nothing to change the dynamic beyond a tiny increase in single target... Even its 'I hit everyone' recharged by crit is almost always worse than its at-will.So, yeah, it'll wander around going 'Uhh, I full attack, four hits, 60 damage' and people will pop some surges, and eventually it'll just die. Whee.The fact that it's got an extra +2 attack may actually be more of a saving grace, though the other did also have the ability to attack Reflex if making ranged attacks wasn't too horrible (which it may well be in a melee-heavy party)</blockquote>
