[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8796079, member: 7006"] So it seems that your argument is that because [I]Hex[/I] is one of the best spells at 1st level, most Bards will use it and it will turn into the default Bard option even though you don't think it is Bard-like? Seems to me the issue then isn't the spell... it's all the other Bard players out there that you have a problem with-- Bard players that care more about absolute spell power than they do with being "Bard-like". Unfortunately, you're just crap out of luck on that one. Even if WotC was to remove Hex from the Bard list... that's not going to turn all these Bard players into suddenly forsaking powerful magics and playing more towards theme. You're trying to treat the symptom, not the disease. Other people play this game differently than you (or me, or any of us). And trying to get WotC to change rules for no better argument that you personally don't like it is not an argument that I think holds much weight. Either from WotC, or more importantly from other people for whom you are trying to convince so that you ALL can put down your findings in the survey and get those precious percentages closer to what you need for WotC to make a decision to change.
