[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8062263, member: 63508"] I don't think that there is a limit on smashing. My belief is that the limits are the game system we use for simplicity's sake is too low for what the fanbase wants. For example, the high level 5e fighter is the [B]Deadly Reaper Fighter. [/B]It's a valid interpretation of a high level fighter. It's a man in armor with a weapon. Very little supernature. But if you get into range of it's attacks, you take a load of damage. No cutting fireballs in half. No flight or super jump. He or she just chops the dragon to bits and hopes that it can survive until it's done. Now if that isn't your interpetation of a high level fight and you think more Hercules or Cu Cuhulainn, Well then you have to let your fighter have 30 STR and 30 CON before items to make the [B]Demigod Fighter[/B]. Or if your fighter has mind so sharp it can shrug off charms and fear, you need to give him or her immunity or save bonuses for the [B]Mastermind Fighter.[/B] But if you stay in the game's base limitations, your fighter will only be able to grow into the standard blender warrior. Nothing wrong with a blender, be people have to accept that without blantant supernatural effect, expansion of the fighter's physical or mental ability, or an automatic resource gain, the high level fighter is a blender or a machine gun.
