Indeed fighting underleveled sucks ...
But fighting overleveled sucks aswell.
I mean if you reach level 4 and get some decent gear ... even goblin camp is hardly a challenge ... its long and tedious (mainly bcs you have to kill them 1 by 1) but none of those goblins can seriously threaten your health and hardly any last longer than first hit. :-/
Now imagine you would have Fireball from level 5 ... or something even stronger from later levels ... :-/
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings.
Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
