[QUOTE="Mort, post: 7235926, member: 762"] DMs need to remember that. That said, I think the thread has morphed from challenging the player to more of a thematic issue. In 5e, by third level there's a decent chance that EVERY character in the party can cast. This isn't really a balance issue, so much as a jarring thematic one. The party rests for the night and the fighter uses [I] mending '[/I] on his broken arrows. The Rogue, instead of just sneaking past a guard distracts him with minor illusion or dancing lights. The ranger spamming pass without trace so the party can give elves a run for their money in the stealth department. This sets a theme of high magic that some DMs aren't comfortable with, don't want. I've been DMing Ebberron lately so this pervasive low level magic feel is actually perfect - it's a big part of the setting. As such, not only hasn't it been a problem, it's been a big boon. But my next campaign will likely focus on Greyhawk, I wonder if it won't be a bit much there. Probably not for my group as they are so used to the level of magic. But I can see other groups and DMs having a harder time with the magic level! Sent from my SM-G930V using [URL=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=93205]EN World mobile app[/URL] [/QUOTE]
