Why is the wizard using a fireball against a single target?I'm getting for a level 9 paladin that uses 1 spell slot on average a turn will deal 32.4 DPR (using his level 3 slots first and a 60% chance to hit). This can be further increased with hunters mark (at the cost of more spells per fight)
I'm getting a fireball upcast to 5th level will do 25.2 damage (assuming 60% chance for failed save).
Paladin in this example is doing 29% more damage than the fireball.
