	- None of the Craft, Knowledge, or Profession skills exist, nor do Appraise, Autohypnosis, Climb, Decipher Script, Disguise, Escape Artist, Forgery, Gather Information... it's a much shorter list of skills, let's just leave it at that. As a result, each class has a much shorter list of class skills. However, each class still gains the same number of skill points per level as in 3E, and skills cost the same amount of skill points per rank as in 3E, so characters with high Intelligence scores will often find themselves forced to invest skill points in cross-class skills, or in skills that they will never, ever use.		- None of the Craft, Knowledge, or Profession skills exist, nor do Appraise, Autohypnosis, Climb, Decipher Script, Disguise, Escape Artist, Forgery, Gather Information... it's a much shorter list of skills, let's just leave it at that.

Wizards in particular are kinda screwed by only having 3 class skills: Concentration, Repair, and Spellcraft (of which only 2 are usable by non-Warforged races)

	- Grappling doesn't exist in DDO, nor do weapon sizes (in the sense of small/medium/large/etc. weapons), but races still come in "small" and "medium" sizes. As a result, small races do not suffer any of the penalties of being small, but still get all of the benefits. Fucking h@x. Weapons do still have handedness, in that there are light, 1-handed, and 2-handed weapons, but this is not the same thing as size.		- Grappling doesn't exist in DDO, nor do weapon sizes (in the sense of small/medium/large/etc. weapons), but races still come in "small" and "medium" sizes.

	* '''[[Druid]]''' - The FIRST most broken class, they can heal massive amounts of health, have a permanent familiar (similar to the Artificer's Iron Defender), can make their own food, turn wild animals to their side, summon an extra animal on top of that, buff allies, debuff enemies, and transform into a number of powerful monsters.

Their one and only drawback is that they can't use metal items at all, which leaves out most types of good weapons and armor.

In another major improvement, while 3.5e only had a single Fighter-exclusive feat chain (the Weapon Focus->Specialization->Greater WF->GWS chain), DDO adds the Heavy Armor Training and Tactical Training feat chains.
	* '''[[Paladin]]''' - Like a crappy knockoff of a cleric; they can use all the same items and spells, but have a smaller spell pool and stink at regular attacks without an active ability turned on. Most of their abilities focus on resisting or damaging Evil creatures, but suck at anything else (like the huge number of neutral types of damage). Now having light damage, but forget heals from these guys. This is for solo players.

Instead of needing to level up and purchase exotic crossbow proficiencies with action points as rogues do, they get proficiency with all three kinds of exotic crossbow (and - I shit you not - Rapid Reload) right out of the gate, making them the preferred class for anyone who wants to [[DAKKA]] the shit out of some motherfuckers with a repeating crossbow (light or heavy). They also get a mechanical pet, some crafting and repair perks, steampunk laser cannons, and some stuff related to arcane casting. The casting stuff is weird because they don't cast arcane spells, so they're good to multiclass with Wizards.		* '''[[Artificer]]''' - The second most broken class, awarded for grinding 150 favor with House Cannith.

	* '''[[Barbarian]]''' - Specialize in ignoring attacks, [[Rage\|Raging]], and killing <strike>any</strike>everything in his or her way. Also really good at resisting enchantments. A Half-Orc with at least one level in Barbarian is an insanely powerful melee damage machine at low levels. You start with +2 strength right out of the gate, which is +2 damage per hit with a two-handed weapon, and Rage temporarily provides another +4 strength and therefore damage (2-handers in DDO gain 2x your Strength modifier to damage, unlike paper DND's 1.5x). Four perk points into the Barbarian Frenzied Berserker tree will provide +3 strength while Raging, and 4 perk points into the Barbarian Ravager tree will give you +3 to your Power Attack damage. Twenty perk points in the Half-Orc tree can add another +3 Strength while Raging, another +3 Power Attack damage, a combined +8 damage per hit from four levels of Orcish Weapon Training, and +1 Strength. You get an ability score point at level 4, which you should spend on Strength (obviously); this adds up to another +6 damage while raging with a 2-handed weapon, and another +2 damage from base Strength. Your Strength modifier should be well above 5 at this point, so Power Attack is capping out at +10 damage per hit with a 2-handed weapon before the +6 damage from your PA perks, so you have a whopping '''+38 damage per power attack when raging with a 2-handed weapon''' (and +28 damage per power attack when ''not'' raging). This is at '''level seven''', by the way, and it only requires 1 level of Barbarian. Dump your other 6 levels into Fighter to pick up 4 Fighter bonus feats if you want to get even more nuts.		* '''[[Barbarian]]''' - Specialize in ignoring attacks, [[Rage\|Raging]], and killing <strike>any</strike>everything in his or her way.

Unlike paper D&D Warforged, who just choose their armor plating during character-creation and then never have to worry about armor again, DDO Warforged wear an entirely new type of item called "docents" that go in the armor slot, but they still have access to the [[Mithral]] and [[Adamantine]] Body feats because... fuck it, we don't know why. Perk tree includes the 20% Strikethrough chance when two-handed fighting and +3 to Power Attack damage from the half-orc tree, and a lot of the +con and +HP stuff you'll find in the Dorf perk tree, but without the "Weapon Training" perks that you'll find in either (or Elven weapon training, or Gnomish etc...), so they're pretty consistently behind the curve in DPS. Instead, they just have more stuff that makes them harder to kill. They're definitely more optimized for tanking than DPS. They make abnormally great barbarians because Adamantine plating neither requires heavy armor proficiency (which barbs lack) nor shuts off their barbarian abilities (unlike paper D&D), and because their immunity to fatigue (which isn't mentioned in-game or on the DDO wiki) includes immunity to barbarian [[RAGE]] fatigue. They also make pretty fucking good Wizards if you combine the Mithral body feat with the Inscribed Armor perk, since you're making up for the Wizard's two biggest ~~weakness~~ (lack of armor and lack of HP). Not so great for divine casters or sorcs.
