And my bad, I was thinking more of wearing crappy armor and using weapons that do less damage, but, yeah the "to hit" wouldn't go down, or why get the levels in fighter in the first place, unless to just raise HD.<br /><br />It's been a long time, and I only got to 2nd level thief before our campaign faded away, but I think what was most jarring was having to change tactics. I had to sneakily scout ahead instead of taking a flank etc.Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-58121313966902378502011-10-08T12:21:49.236-07:002011-10-08T12:21:49.236-07:00Thac0 isn't a class ability, nor are saving th...Thac0 isn't a class ability, nor are saving throws. When you dual class over to thief, you join a thieves guild--now if in the course of an adventure you find yourself donning some plate armor and charging some ogre with a lance from horseback, you don't get to assign xp to the thief class. <br /><br />You keep your thac0 and saves though.UWS guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277557128674527225noreply@blogger.com
