Cool, I've coined a phrase: powergamy!
Anyone who says that owes me a quarter [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Your right, a quarterstaff should be given to one of the casters... I got it! I'll exchange one of the sorcerers for a mage and give him the quarterstaff, allowing me to ditch the ranger level, and make him a rogue2/paladin2/mage. This also allows me to lose the rogue level on the other mage, and if needed add another rogue level! Thanks for starting the train of thought! (Yeesh, anyone have any antipowergamer pills?

)
You know, my next 'new for me' game may have to be a (OMG!) non-powergamed characters party. Dear God, no paladins or dreadmasters, a (gasp!) high level rogue, and maybe only 1 mage [img]redface.gif[/img]
Hah! April fool!
