[QUOTE="The Human Target, post: 6238002, member: 22574"] I have an interesting personal anecdote. One of the reasons my players love 4e so much is that they don't have to have a lot of system mastery to be all around effective as characters. They're all fairly busy late 20 to early 30 year olds. They don't spend much time if any thinking about their mechanics away from the table. Half of them have never even read a 4e PHB. They realized the basics if the game are fairly simple and balanced. And fun. They don't need to worry much about effectiveness. They spend their time thinking about roleplaying, and the story. I feel the same way about monster balance and ease of running the game as a DM. The strong, well thought out rules free me up to work on the other aspects if the game. That's all the argument for balance being good I will ever need. Notice I never said anything about DPR. [/QUOTE]
