It seems a shame that so few people have left comments, and I see your last post was almost a year ago. Does that mean it is no longer active?<br /><br />So I hope you see this comment, but who knows?<br /><br />I am a long time DnD player going all the way back to AD&D, like yourself. And I share your opinion of the low status of the fighter.<br /><br />But I don't think that status is due to changes from 3rd edition. With all the fighter feats available in 3.5 edition, I think the Fighter is still a better general purpose non-magical combatant than most classes. Is a rogue better than a fighter against the undead? Is a Barbarian better than a fighter against enemy archers?<br /><br />In fact the fighter class has so many marvelous extra feats, that I put together a simple low level build that I think is a great foundation for whatever kind of specialized high level fighter a person wants. A foundation which is more ready for anything an adventure is likely to produce.<br /><br />Why am I bothering you with this, even though there is a good chance (it seems) you may never see it? Because I think you could appreciate it.<br /><br /><br /><br />http://lost-legends.wikidot.com/forum/t-510217/class-builds#post-2255250Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292658395400626426.post-84807839353709891152013-04-10T12:56:00.489-04:002013-04-10T12:56:00.489-04:00Yeah, Dungeons and Dragons is pretty much the fath...Yeah, Dungeons and Dragons is pretty much the father of the linear fighters vs. quadratic wizards problem. It was a serious issue from 1 to 3.x. At least 3.x eventually had the Crusader and the Warblade from the Book of Nine Swords, which could keep up with spell casters until at least 15th level.Nezmatulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05734102716089232369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292658395400626426.post-44793584944615960532013-02-05T20:30:41.846-05:002013-02-05T20:30:41.846-05:00My first character was a 2nd edition human fighter...My first character was a 2nd edition human fighter. I never felt underpowered, but then again, the DM ruled weapon specialization would let me wield a claymore in one hand.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05590238959642349054noreply@blogger.com
