Oooh! You play D&D? Smile
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Heh, guess you gotta go with what your DM says you go with. Wink

I tried 3.5, couldn't get into it as much. Felt too much like power building with characters.
I like the subtle leveling in 1st ed. But, I do like 3.5 (or what's left of it) in DDO. Wink

Power building? Oh yes. It's all about optimizing really, I've heard some really ridiculous stories about some builds the über-players in Scruffy's gang have done. My group is a noob group, so we just do it for the lulz (and quite poorly, I'm afraid), but it is fun and we haven't wiped even once so far. (I could tell you a couple of stories about our Warforged Barbarian, who collects the teeth of our enemies for a shirt and staples foes' penises together, but I think I'll leave that for another day.)

Limited knowledge is when you perceive the tip of the iceberg.
Total knowledge is when you are able to get 100% of what is there therefore also to be able to get the part that is under up to the surface of your consciousness.
Here you are talking about higher consciousness not a piece of ice.Angel

It's made of glass, does that count?
