[QUOTE="Ebony Dragon, post: 6346300, member: 4899"] Some people here posting like wizards don't get attacked, lol. In the last Pathfinder game I played our party wizard was getting pounded *all* the time. As soon as opponents knew who the wizard was they knew he would be the easiest person to take out of commission. Luckily, in 3.X spell casters have all sorts of ridiculous ways to survive and skirt damage. In that game our wizard often used some spell that could invoke a force bubble around himself at immediate speed. Great for surviving, but it did take him out of combat for a round or two because he would be trapped in the bubble then on his next round. Now in 5E they are solving the "stack a million buffs" phenomenon so who knows if wizards will be able to put up as many ridiculous magical defenses that can always be active as they did in 3.X. From what I've seen so far of the rules, I doubt it. That medium armor proficiency could be a huge benefit, even at higher levels. [/QUOTE]
