[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 5783417, member: 9037"] It is your opinion that web trivializes fights, my groups opinion is that web can make a combat more manageable and I am often asked my other members of the group to cast it and I have asked wizards to cast it when I am the fighter. It can be a very effective tactic to help the entire party deal with a lot of numbers of enemy combatants. If your group does not like it then simply don't use it ask the wizard not to cast it. DMs can take out any spell they want which I prefer far more than what they did in 4E which gave people who don't agree that they want magic to mirror the way it is to either accept , do major house rules to fix it or the easier thing stay with 3.5 or go to another system that works the way we prefer our magic. I said before that I think the item creation is to easy in 3E and needs to be reined in. I think the fact that you can so easily make items that get you around the limitations imposed on casters is the reason that some people find 3E magic to be over powered. Take those away and you will find a lot less issue with it. Most of the DMs I game with have house rules for handling this. There is a big difference in playing a loner type character who tags along with the party and taking spells just to screw over another player's character. One is role playing the other is being a jerk. [/QUOTE]
