Another class analasys has been posted at Neverwinter Vault, and this time Shaderaven studies the fighter.

One might think that the Barbarian and Fighter analysis' would be much the same, and, well, they would be right in the broadest sense of the classes. The Fighter, like the Barbarian, is a solid up-front, take it on the chin type who can combine high armor class (defense) and high hit points with melee skills to create the prototype tank - one that takes a lot of abuse while dishing out big hits. However, on closer inspection, what you see in the Fighter is that while they can perform this role nearly as well as Barbarian, they have many more options and roles they can concentrate on. The Fighter can be a swashbuckler, archer, knight, ruffian, soldier, adventuring craftsman, horseman, gladiator, and so much more. So, the person who sees a Fighter on a character sheet or player roster (in game) and assumes that they are dealing with another greatsword wielding oaf in plate male could be right, but as often as not, they will find a much different personality than the expected.
