I think it was in one of the early DRAGONS or somewhere else where we saw the "how much would it cost to purchase the services of a X-level fighter" and the prices didn't make sense AT ALL given the difference between fighters of different levels back then....I personally was never happy that a 20th level fighter was no better at avoiding actual attacks than he was at 1st level. And yeah, I never really considered the excess HP as an aspect of "dodging" but more of luck and plain old hardiness (a.k.a why a 20th level fighter could survive a fall from a higher level than a 1st level fighter)</blockquote>
