But you're right, that feat does help a lot. IME not everyone takes it, but IMC's spell casters don't always have to cast defensively.I do kind of agree about the 15th level fighter should potentially be better than a 5th level one... at not being cast defensively against... but I don't see how to fairly make such an addition to the game. For the 15th level fighter should be better against the 5th level wizard than the 5th level fighter vs the 5th level wizard, but the 15th level wizard should be better vs the 15th level fighter than the 5th level wizard is against the 5th level fighter.  That second part is adequately represented by the current mechanic, and the first mechanic is a little pointless, in that the 15th level fighter, while not harder to cast defensively against, is a LOT better at killing that pesky 5th level wizard!</blockquote>
