[QUOTE="Saeviomagy, post: 2081830, member: 5890"] For half. Scorching ray is better, and it doesn't. Yeah, but honestly now: how many opponents have evasion? If the answer is "most of them" then your wizard is being a bit stupid using this spell. Yeah, I suppose his touch AC is just awful, what with that crappy dex and heavy armour... Ohhh, I get it. You're doing the warlock vs heavy armour, low dex opponents and the wizard vs rogues with evasion. No wonder the warlock is more effective. Interesting that the warlock has a dex of 20. Do any other party members have stats that come close? And wizards get overland flight as a 5th level spell, so he can cast it at 9th. If all your opponents are too useless to deal with a flying foe, then I'd expect him to be casting it every day. No it's not. It sounds like you've not got much of a clue what low magic means if you've got unmodified wizards and warlocks in the game. What you have is "it's a screw the non-magic classes world". Also the fact that the warlock is running around with a +5 dex bonus is a point of bias towards him - high stats are much more important in a low magic game. Yawn.
