I'll tell you what I'm not here for. It's this thread, whose only redeeming quality is The Count's budding homosexuality.

Clearly, a 20th level commoner isn't supposed to be as good as a 20th level fighter which implies level means 'the best you can be in your niche' and not 'equal power level'.

If they capped commoners at level 4 it would have done a lot to make it clear that some concepts expire.
Said commoner is likely either the world's greatest farmer, a notable labor union leader, or Secretary-General of the Silverymoon Communist Party.

If I had to pick a low point for 3E sillyness, "20th level commoners" would be it.

Yeah, that was pretty much my reaction.
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.
