[QUOTE="Macbeth, post: 1040382, member: 11259"] As was said in an earlier post, you really can't consider the half-and-half spellcasting/combat classes (Ranger, Paladin) Spellcasters, they only get a very few spells: you'll never replace you party cleric with a paladin. the ranger and paladin only dabble in magic, and therefore don't really count as spellcasters. And by the way, magic is divided into Arcane and [B]Divine[/B] , not divinaton. I also noticed your list has the "priest" last time i checked there was no priest class. I thought that maybe you ment "cleric," but thats already on your list. Odd. Also, the Bard is hardly a competent spellcaster. he gets a few spells from a very narrow list. At best the bard is half a spellcaster. So now the chart reads: Bard: Half Spellcaster Barbarian: Non Cleric: Spellcaster Druid: Spellcaster Fighter: Non Monk: Non Paladin: Not enough to matter Ranger: Not enough to matter Rogue: Non Sorcerer: Spellcaster Wizard: Spellcaster That gives us four and a half spellcasters (or five and a half if you generously count the Paladin and Ranger as half each) out of 11 classes. Less then half of the classes have any meaningful ability in magic. Having said that, I think tha both AU and D&D are high magic. 'nuff said. [/QUOTE]
