I guess at this point.... is there really any more to say on this topic? I mean both camps have stated their cases.
Casters are Stronger
We have had 30 pages of people basically all stated the same general things in 400 different ways. Is there really anymore to say? I guess the question is....did anyone switch sides after hearing the debates?
Casters are Stronger
- Can do things Martials simply cannot do (aka "cinematically cooler")
- Has much stronger downtime options
- Martials are often helpless before magical powers that only casters can deal with, aka "reliant on casters"
- Superior in combat
- Caster's "superior utility" is mostly theoretical. In practice, with proper adjudication of prepared spells and encounters per day, casters are fairly limited.
- Unlimited Resources compared to caster resource limitations, which require them to fall back onto suboptimal cantrips compared to martial at-will attacks and techniques.
