I just noticed that in the latest playtest packet, between 11th and 20th level, the fighter gets four daily uses of Combat Surge, the rogue gets four daily uses of Ace in the Hole, and the cleric and the wizard get four daily spells (one 6th, one 7th, one 8th, and one 9th).
The fighter and rogue get their first daily use of their respective abilities at 11th level, the same level that the cleric and wizard get their 6th-level spell. However, from there on, the fighter and rogue gain additional uses at 14th, 17th and 20th level, while the cleric and wizard get additional spells at 13th, 15th and 17th level.
Do you think there is a case for aligning the spellcasters' spell acquisition with the martial classes' ability acquisition, i.e. the 7th-level spell would be gained at 14th level, the 8th-level spell at 17th level, and the 9th-level spell at 20th level? On the one hand, it would give wizards and clerics something to look forward to at 20th level. On the other hand, it would be a break with tradition and may be seen as "too balanced" or "pointless symmetry".
