Ghallanda Light Presents: Real Men of Genius
(background singer: Real Men of Genius)

Today we salute you, Mr. Cheat Death Capstone Developer
(Mr. Cheat Death Capstone Developerrrrrr)

You wanted to reward a player for sticking to his class for 20 levels. You want to help rogues deal with the fact that they're more fragile than other melees. And you did it...after they're already dead.
(shouldn't have gotten yourself killed anywaaaaaay)

Epic Dodge? No. Sneak Attacks on undead or constructs? No. A rez on top of the rez the cleric is going to throw you anyway? You betcha!
(regretting those 2 fighters levels now, aren't youuuuuuu?)

Like a driver whose solution to an odd engine noise is to turn up the radio, you deftly address the symptom, and not the cause. But hey, they're just rogues!
(shoulda rolled a ranger)

So crack open an ice cold Ghallanda Light, oh Captain of the Capstones and don't forget to close that barn door...the horse has bolted.
(Mr. Cheat Death Capstone Developerrrrrrr!)

it's like "Well, they are Rogues and yes they are very squishy. No matter how they're played they're going to die. I know, let's give them an ability to res themselves so Clerics won't have to rez them anymore. It's like they can cheat death even though they still died, I love it!"

Ok Drac., now you need to do a DDO Dub of the commercials! :)

I suggest possibly this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEYInUvLalQ&feature=related) (mostly corporate setting)

OH GOD if I had the equipment to do it, this would be amazing!

Drac,

You express in words what my vomit expressed to the toilet after reading about the Rogue Capstone.

BTW, are you taking that PoS, because I'm pretty sure I'm staying pure.
