And I think while the line between subclass and class is rather subjective, D&D has done a decent job of trying to split the difference. I'm not sure assassin or illusionist could have been a full class with multiple subclasses of their own, but barbarian or artificer are. I'm also kinda bored with fighter. As I said, I find "I hit things with weapons" a rather boring and soulless class when their are a bunch of other classes that also hit things with weapons and do cool things like rage, smite, or whatever the ranger does. I'd rather have a few more unique martial classes (knight, warlord, swordmage, "mythic" hero) and put fighter out to pasture. I'd also like the wizard to have an identity beyond having access every arcane-coded spell and a spellbook. Those two things eat 90% of their identity and power budget. It's really telling that 2024 couldn't find anything to do with them that wasn't op. I think the wizard should have a more generalist and spell list and let the other classes get the best in a certain field. (The bard gets the best enchantments, the sorcerer the best boom magic) Rather than the wizard getting everything but a few select signature spells per class. That would also open up room for classes like witch, necromancer and psion to have a place.</blockquote>
