Mage cannot stand up to a warrior in melee combat! Can a book nerd beat up the school wrestling champ! NO! If you want to melee then pick warrior, or if you want to fight like a scumbag pick a rogue! If you want to babble at people and launch fireballs pick mage, but dont pick a mage and try to fight like a warrior!
I'm just kidding, I hope there is some kind of battle mage build that is unique and fun. It better not outshine warriors though!
Actually if the "book nerd" has read the right books, and or knows how to use said books he can beat up the school wrestling champ.
Take your elitist ideaology back to what ever rascist anti-social organization you are a memeber of , and stay amoongst like minded fools.
Thank you and have a nice day.
First off I was joking.
Secondly, reading about something doesn't really teach you how to do it, doing something teaches you how to do it. A nerd that reads books on martial arts and doesnt practice will be killed by a trained fighter 99 out of 100 times. The fighter not only studies his martial art, but practices it constantly. The nerd will also have a body which is adapted to inactivity reading books and playing video games, whereas the fighters body has adapted to struggle and intense physical activity. The match would not even be close.
The UFC proved long ago that no scrawny dude who studies impractical martial arts and doesn't train properly is going to beat a trained fighter. That being said, Id love to see a mage melee build that was comparable in effectiveness to a warrior or rogue due to magic buffs and defenses, but definitely not better.
