[QUOTE="DanmarLOK, post: 4688069, member: 71480"] I'm working the following into my game and the wizard player enjoyed the changes. Due note that this is a casual table where 'almost doing the same damage as me and I'm the striker? No [bleep] way!" is not something that would even be considered. After getting the players to level 3 the wizard to me as the DM the way I design and run encounters comes off as weak and without effect. I'm not going to pump every single encounter up with minions that clump together in tight groups to get around what I see as a flaw in the design in the 'controller' class that as written is more about the 'low damage large area' class. Anyway, these so far seem to nudge the wizard upwards in the 'fun to play for the player without overshadowing anyone' and that's the kind of table I try to run. The wizard is now dropping scorching bursts to force creatures to shift and pushing them back to open the enemy lines up and in general is having more fun with her class. And given that the wizard is played by my wife that helps me in other areas... [Snipped from a blog post of mine] [/QUOTE]
