Steve has already said Lore:Chaos isn't a pre req for ANY skills.
As for the math argument. That's the point. Casters are SUPPOSED to beat warriors, which is why you don't have spell defenses. I as a rogue should beat casters. Therefore, I have spell defenses, as well as a way to match a casters relocate. Warriors should be beating rogues. Which is why a rogue can't defend your 15 dmg without actually blocking the strike out of game.
Also, if you as the warrior get close to the caster before they finish the verbal and hit them, you stop them from getting the spell off. Therefore they can't do what you listed.
I as Caelvan have had 4 lists for the past year and a half to two years. Do you know what Caelvan has called himself? A Ranger.
Druid? Didn't matter. Ronin? Didn't matter, "not a Ronin." Warrior? " well yeah I'm a warrior, so are you. We both swing swords"
You don't need to be a Dragoon. You can pick up Dragoon and not be a "Dragoon". Just like you can pick up Chaos Warrior, and not be a "Chaos Warrior".

Does he get to ignore those effects? Personally i think its kind of silly that to be able to fight a certain way you have to take detriments or specific roleplay in order to just continue to play the character you've been playing for a while.
But Chaos warriors don't take extra damage from posi...

Well, I apologize I am coming across as rude. Honestly, I am not a very cordial person in writing. I am concerned, definitely, but I in no way meant to be rude, so I am sorry. I mean that, truly. I just feel like I'm constantly being ignored, or told conflicting information about roleplaying.
"You should only get a list through roleplay, not because of the skills it has."
"You don't have to roleplay the list's specifics."
I feel like we're going in circles and I don't understand truly why.
If I am told, by the rules team, I can be a Dragoon, and never have to deal with dragon blood issues. Then why have a bloodline class. If I can have Chaos warrior and never deal with alignment chaos issues, or take bane from posi, then why have a Chaos Warrior class?
I am not trying to be uncivil or rude, I just don't understand the point for classes if we don't have to roleplay them. Why not just have 1 list of skills per arche type, and choose what we want?
Edit: Steve is talking to me in private so a lot of things for me are getting cleared up. Thanks.
