[QUOTE="AIM-54, post: 1619168, member: 15633"] [b]Re: The Monk[/b] I'm currently playing a monk at 12th level and it's interesting to see some of the comments here. At lower levels they certainly do need to be careful...I spent a lot of combats unconscious having tried to play the up-front fighter too much. At the same time, I didn't really have much choice, as my skill list was...paltry...the result of a 6 intelligence (he's a half-orc). Really, what he's been good at is finishing off bad guys after the fighters have dealt out enough damage to bring them to that point. Nevertheless, I've had a blast playing him, though magic items and a wicked high Wisdom are virtually required for self-preservation purposes. With more skill points, I can see where they would make an excellent addition to any scouting team, and their value as mage-killers has already been pointed out. Otherwise, I'm inclined to say the bard is the weakest class...except we have a bard who's been ridiculously useful in various social situations. Glibness is a killer spell when there's a lie to be told (as much as I hate the concept of getting a +30 to a check on a d20....something about that strikes me as being wrong...). As has been said above, as long as you recognize your classes niche and stay within it, you should be okay...but when your archer ranger tries a solo assault on the citadel...well, the results are rarely pretty.
