Caelic 02-22-06, 06:14 PM	The problem with your request is that it's almost exactly like asking "Which is strongest: rock, paper, or scissors?" It depends entirely on what the enemy is bringing to the hoe-down. If your opponent always throws scissors, then rock is great. If your opponent always throws paper, not so much. Likewise--if there are a lot of low-will-save melee types in the mix, then a spellcaster with Charm Person rocks. If there are a lot of mages in the mix, then a fighter with a high Will save and a bow is great. You can't really go wrong with a Cleric, though.
Magare 02-22-06, 06:16 PM	I apologise for the wrongly set question. I'll rephrase. If you were about to enter a 1v1 duel with a level 3 character, what would you play?
GaffeR 02-22-06, 06:18 PM	Very lame request, but i'll throw my 2 cents in... cause i'm bored. Half-Orc Fighter 2/Barb 1 Feats: Power Attack, X, X, X -Consider improved sunder for 1v1 duels. You can probably smash an opponent's weapon at this level without too much difficulty.
brdxtrm 02-22-06, 06:25 PM	when you say duel do you mean melee duel or do you mean wizard duel? If you mean melee duel, i'd suggest you play a swashbuckler with high dex and intelligence or a 1 Barbarian/2 Fighter with a spiked chain, power attack, improved trip, and a high strength score. It'd help to know if you intend to play this character past level 3 and what ideas you had in mind for him besides "what's a powerful level 3?" Just about anything can be a powerful level 3.
