Beyond the points being made by the warriors in the previous posts, one critical point that is being overlooked is that at equal S&H skill, a Warrior is nowhere near as effective at hiding as a Rogue due to a massive profession bonus Rogues receive. Even if the Rogue does not avail himself of Shadow Mastery or Armored Stealth, a 2x S&H Warrior at 100th level trying to hide in front of a creature is significantly worse off than the 1x Rogue.

It couldn't have anything to do with that clunky plate jingling around making all that noise.

Professional bonuses should be eliminated. Restructure the S&H system so it makes sense and equal across the board as per skill/stats/spells.

i'm fine with some professional bonuses but...

100 ranks worth? That's a bit of overkill.

The professional bonus should be reflected in the skill system. Rogues 3x S/H for crissakes.

There's too many god damn relics of GS when getting to level 20 was an accomplishment.

Agreed, but they don't really bother me per se. And they do make sense, but are technically unnecesary.

only point was damn....100 levels worth of training not making up for a professional bonus? That's obscene no matter what system the game is using.

I am a rogue and I must agree. +100 ranks bonus? Motherfuck.

Don't nerf rogues to put them in line with other professions though in this regard. Buff everyone else.

The mechanics of GS are way to complicated for no good reason.

Somewhere, in a back room, Coase just kicked Oscuro in his shin.

Hilarious... mainly because Grendeg is fucking annoying.
