I love the PvP idea because we used to do that with NWN, where we would compete in Pvp arenas and I really got to see firsthand the combat weaknesses of 3.5 edition in regards to class versus class.
The top two classes in terms of strength were Sorcerer (Sor 17/Monk2 /Pally 1) and Barbarian because they excelled at their primary way of causing damage and could protect themselves fairly well. It showcased to me for the first time how unbalanced the classes were in 3.5 when in a combat encounter with each other.
I'd love to be able to do the same with the existing builds - standard equipment - just to see who ends up being strongest on the class balance perspective at a level per- level basis. No barrelmancy, no throwing people of course.
My multiplayer groups have already done a certain amount of that but nothing conclusive except that the Dire Raven is incredibly OP as a pet. Ranger with a Bow and a Dire Raven will usually win.
