Even after the nerf?

No idea. I know that people were talking about it as an idea and I tried it on Lam because I thought it was a neat idea, but I don't know that anyone actually wanted a Barb/Monk or a Pal/Brd at the time. Even if they did it then, they'd have long since reincarnated out of that combo because that...

This is almost the problem. Steps 3 and 5 are absolutely what break the system, but they didn't make you stuck - instead they allowed illegal classes. You could get a Barbarian Monk or a Paladin Bard during the brief period when Alignment Tomes did not require you to be in a tavern and the...

Well that’s certainly a take. Weird hill to die in, but…

My teenage kid tried to explain what the word “mid” means and I didn’t really understand it. Now I do.

It comes from the AoE explosions that happen as I cleave through my enemies with my mighty sword of explosionness.

THF will still have the worst single target boss DOS, so people will still complain that it’s underpowered compared to SWF and TWF.
