Will do, even if it is a while before I get to it. Currently playing a Rock'n'Roll Dirge Bard that I don't intend to ditch, and already have a Kamen Rider-esque Aegis planned as my back-up character.

That is a pretty interesting Wizard archetype, might have to look into that if I ever get around to playing a Wizard. And honestly, a lot of times, something being labeled "third party" for Pathfinder makes me interested because a number of third party material(mostly stuff made by...

I can see them being used for certain settings and stuff, I'm just annoyed how really narrow the focus on those are. The only one of those I'd never use for any reason is the Pure Legion Enforcer, mostly because I can't think of any situation where making it more difficult to heal and buff me...

After taking a small break to think on this, considering it doesn't seem like any of us(myself included) are willing to budge on our viewpoints, so I'm willing to drop, or at least change, the discussion to something else so the rest of the topic isn't just us arguing. One smaller complaint I...

Fair enouhg, though the summon's still around to bash down the next two doors if we move quickly. Each example only assumed one each, though the Wizard can have 2 f them due to his natural spell learning(I'd probably take Teleport and Passwall personally.) Passwall and Fabricate I'll give you...

The problem is I have people telling me spellcasters in PATHFINDER aren't stupidly powerful. I play Pathfinder every week and I've read through the SRD numerous times, and I honestly can't imagine how anyone doesn't see it.

So wait, the party is trying to escape from a TPK monster by running further into the dungeon? :erm: And yes, "a" door. If there's 3 locked doors that all take a full round to pick and the Rogue still has a bout a 50%~ chance to pick the lock at a full-round each attempt, the monster will still...

If the Rogue has time to pick the lock at all, then the Wizard has time to summon something. Again, level 10 is one of the worst times to argue against Wizard power because that's when martials start completely getting left in the dust. Also, passwall lets me open a passage in the door/wall...

I know you think you're being clever here, but it falls completely flat when I haven't been reading between the lines and am just pointing out exactly what happened in the topic.

As I pointed out earlier, spell components are one of those spellcasting rules people seem to think limits spellcasters in some way when they really don't.

No, once AGAIN, I'm assuming the Wizard isn't completely braindead and blew all his most powerful spells at cannon fodder fights.

The problem comes when my assumed condition is "The Wizard player knows how to play the game," and when the refutation is "No, as long as the Wizard never goes above level 1 and isn't allowed to prepare his spells, he's totally not so good."

And, for the third time, by the time DC40 locks start showing up, Wizards have better ways of bypassing the doors, ESPECIALLY at the level 10 example you've given(like casting Passwall on the door or wall by the door or summoning a Wooly Rhinocerous to bash the door down)

Like I said above, that's if for some reason I absolutely have to pick this lock. By the time DC30 and 40 locks start coming into play, Wizards have infinitely better options for getting past locked doors.

...level 8 is ridiculously high? It hasn't even broken double digits.

That said, I find it amusing this topic went from "Post your problems with Pathfinder" to nitpicking the problem I posted with Pathfinder(namely, casters being stupidly overpowered) and trying to justify why it's not a problem(at level 1, tellingly no one's tried to justify why a level 8+ caster...

If I absolutely have to pick the lock, yes. Ideally I'd rather just summon something to bash it down, or disintegrate the door or something.

Fly is one of the utility spells that's worth burning a slot on just because it has that many applications over something specific like Knock.

That's still a Rogue fully optimized for picking locks failing to pick the easiest of locks 50% of the time(to be fair, the Knock Wizard doesn't fair TOO much better, he only has a +1 to picking the lock with Knock over the Rogue). And in the given example, taking a 20 isn't possible(or taking a...
