We're playing 4e Thunderspire Labyrinth and we've decided to let the tank play a large (2×2) Minotaur.
He has all of the stats from the Minotaur player character in the Players Handbook 3, but he's a large creature. He will be a Battlerager Fighter.
The labyrinth has several hallways that are only two squares wide and many doorways that he'll have to use Squeeze just to go through.
What are the advantages this will give him and what are the disadvantages?
Best Answer
There are some major advantages and major disadvantages to playing a large PC. Here are a couple I can think of right off the top of my head
Advantages
Disadvantages
Personally the only thing I find game breaking is the larger bursts, but that will be up to your discretion as DM. I don't think things that are designed to target a max of 8 creatures should get to go up to 12. But its possible that the trade offs of being able to be flanked more ways, and having to squeeze out weight the advantages of extra targets and more damage.
