[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 5872083, member: 63508"] Like I said before, most of the problems with D&D and realism is that there is no official stance on what high level means. There is no core description of what a 15th level fighter is, what he can do, what he can't do, and what he can survive. We know he can take an ogre one on one but but the fight is purely imagination and dice rolls. Stuff happens and we describe. But with magic, we know what happens. If you throw a powerful wizard off a cliff... wait.. you don't throw wizards off cliffs... only morons do that... many high level wizards can cast Feathfall, some sort of flight spell, or even transform into a bird. There is no huge gap of info when spell are involved. Most for most of the rest of D&D, it is pure imagination. And no one has the same imagination. Its not a bonus or flaw. It is a feature. A feature I want to GO AWAY! Share describing stuff WOTC. [/QUOTE]
