[QUOTE="Lylandra, post: 8065413, member: 6816692"] the combat prowess of the fighter in a "fair" 1on1 scenario isn't the problem with the class imo. The problem is that is is lacking in terms of high level fluff/utility. I agree with the OP's ideas because the fighter is a very broad, unspecialized class per se. Fighters can be everything and everyone. At least in terms of background and free writing. But they lack the tools to make the mechanical distinction as well. Not every fighter is a leader figure like a king or chieftain with followers, but some are. Not every fighter is a wuxia-level physics defying hero a la Cloud Strife or other anime/comic book heroes. Not every fighter dips into the fantasy of another class and becomes a magic knight or Chosen One with healing powers and 6th senses. But all of them are part of the fighter archetype. Maybe we can break it down to their most important second stat? Leaders (with followers?): Charisma Tacticians: Intelligence Survivors/Athletes: Constitution Mystic Masters: Wisdom Acrobats/Wuxia: Dexterity (And yes please give them skills to match their archetypes!!!)
