You interpretation of fighters as the mere bodyguards for wizards could just as easily be interpreted as the wizards being mere fire support for the fighters. etc, etc, bla bla bla. None of the classes work well by themselves. That is what we call balance. None of the classes work very well with three other guys exactly like them. What works best is (wait for it) balance. Another important consideration, of course, is the level of magic in the game. Do the characters we are talking about have the appropriate magic items for their level? Oftentimes it seems like the wizard or cleric rule if you are comparing just the class and not the equipment. Non-spellcasters depend very much on their magical gear. Conversely, spellcasters get much less out of magical gear. In the end, it all (wait for it again) balances.</p></blockquote><p></p>
