[QUOTE="glenchi, post: 5336585, member: 95855"] I have been playing d&d 4th edition since it was released. recently my group and I decided that it was not for us, so we chose to go with the Pathfinder books to begin a new game. I played 3rd edition from the day of release all the way until they began printing 4th edition, I own most of the books and any I dont know someone else in the group does. So I consider myself pretty well versed in what 3rd edition has to offer. So we just began our pathfinder game and one of the players is playing a Zen Archer. I did not take the time to read about that particular variant class before saying was ok to use. This character has very good stats all around, i think his lowest stat is 15, and his Zen Archer is level 3 and just killing everything! At his level he has rerolls for when he misses with his flurry of BOWS attacks, uses a greatbow (d10 dmg), NEVER provokes opportunity attacks due to the free precise shot master feat(i think thats what its called) which no one else can get until level 7 i believe. so the breakdown right now is that with percise shot and using flurry of BOWS he has a +8 to hit with every attack, each turn he attacks twice and if he misses he just rerolls. he never provokes opportunity attacks, so he is like this turret of unbeleivable damage. and if that wasnt enough because of his high stats he has one of the highest ACs in the group (20, or around there). Is there a rule that we are misreading or is the zen archer just really really sick? i would appreciate any input on the subject. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
