Meaning every character needs to be able to meaningfully contribute during play. If one PC is easily able to do another PCs schtick, especially if they can still do their own just fine, that's when there tends to be a problem.In combat, I saw this problem more in 3e, where the wizard could easily step on the fighter's schtick. I haven't seen it in combat in 5e, fighters are pretty good in combat.Outside of combat, the problem is fighters don't really have a schtick. So it is easy for the fighter to be overshadowed by the wizard (who absolutely has out of combat utility expressly provided for the class), unless the DM takes steps.</blockquote>
