[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 6018912, member: 2067"] Two things. First, no one is proposing a slavish devotion to pleasing everyone. Second, the idea that not hinging recharge rates on archetype choice would make an "inferior game" is gonna need some support before I buy it. ;) Yeah, I suppose freedom to play whatever you want in whatever way you want it is a pretty rigid box. Wait...what? The "rigid box" would be if every Illusionist MUST take a 5-minute recharge spell and ever fighter MUST be at-will and every wizard MUST be daily-only. It becomes a problem when someone wants to play a certain class or archetype, but doesn't like the way the powers are handed out/gained back. There's no design reason that I can see to FORCE any class to take any particular recharge rate. You can allow for a diversity without making it any worse. Having class abilities with different versions for different recharge rates is one option for allowing that. [/QUOTE]
