So most people only see that part of the character. Skip forward a couple years and they released The Dark Elf trilogy and that explains the fact he's actually a fighter and where the 1 barbarian level comes from. I'd actually love to ask R. A. Salvatore or anyone at WotC as to how they explain Drizzt's multiclassing over the years and especially now in the 5th edition with the newest books throwing monk training/levels into the character's story. Not sure if they've actually updated his character sheet to say monk but still.

	Every time I read something Steelstar posts, it feels like he wrote it with crayon on penmanship paper.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

	Lmfao. I'd argue Divine Disciple manages to do its job far better than Warpriest/Warsoul. Revamping Divine Disciple is going to disappoint folks massively. DD should tie into domains and give further customization there. But it's just going to be a lightly updated version of that tree as is I bet.

Last FvS buffs completely overshadowed Clerics lol.

Mind you I haven't played a caster cleric/FVS life in a hot minute. But shouldn't Death Domain in DD manage to keep DC parity with FVS atm? Cleric is +7 in Death Domain and DD; while FVS is +8 to my count?

	Humans can get quarterstaffs for FvS / Cleric deity weapons. They're still THF weapons, just not preferred ones.

Quarterstaffs will continue to be useless as long as they maintain the low base damage die and being tied exclusively to acrobat/henshin. It's sort of the same situation with Sword and Board; if you aren't using Fighter or Pally for vanguard you might as well not bother.

What good is DPS in comparison to that? You might as well roll up a male half-elf, for an extra serving of ugly on top of the base amount of ugly.

I'll 100% admit I've never bothered with trying to be a DC caster FVS. It's been nuker or meme in melee for me. I'd totally love for you to explain the difference for me though. I gave the example based off the straight tree vs tree (and domain bonus) comparison. By all means educate me oh great one.

	The lack of "rebuild this toon as it was before reincarnating" is one of the main reason I only run 1 epic life at before reincarnating from scratch. I really can't get over that mindless, carpal tunnel inducing manual re-setting from 1 to 20. It's ok when you level up normally but a whole session clicking like that? The worst part is when you play an INT based toon. NIGHTMARE
