Since when has Fighter been our baseline? I thought we typically compared them to at least tier 4 classes.

Also Indomitable Soul does kinda hurt losing since your Wis isn't exactly stellar and I'm pretty sure elementals aren't known for their high Will save bonuses. Unlike Fort-effects, mind-affecting immunity doesn't cover 99% of the saves either.

Oh, and I think there are maneuvers that have saves but they weren't much good on standard builds anyways I think.

Plus I don't get the argument that you only lose "some" hit points. You're similar or inferior to other martials from the start and it gets bigger the more Con they can have.
