Battlemaster has more options, such as Menace... but we'll come to that.For me, the footprints in the butter lead clearly to "What the heck, how is a Wizard tanking in the first place!?"So here I believe we agree on the premise but disagree on conclusions. For me, the fact that Wizard hugely overshadows Fighters is a reason to not give Wizards any more toys! Especially, not toys that step on fighter toes (Battlemaster or not, being able to cast Fly and Fireball etc beats it.) And most especially do I not want to see an AC 23 (28 with Shield) Wizard flying about, with advantage on Acrobatics and +Int to their Concentration saves, bopping foes with GFB or BB, and up and up and away again. Did I mention that they can land, use their freebie extra 10' walking, then go back to flying?Their only downside is possessing a strong odour of fromage!(From, Mage! Cheese... you see what I did there?)</blockquote>
