[QUOTE="DnD_Dad, post: 6118986, member: 6682741"] I think the mechanics that have been represented to your type of gameplay has allowed you to build this viewpoint of casters. I've always kept the balance by allowing casters to experience gritty-desperate situations. Anti-magic fields turn casters in to wimps. Wild magic causes spells to have completely random effects(usually bad for the caster or at least not useable.). Then there are magic triggers that cause casters to blow all their spells at once with no target, and if they are just wand/scroll jockeys then all those go off too. I think your building off of a theory where there are no consequences to having all this stored power on a character at one time, and as I agree that when the stars are aligned and the DM forgets to keep the balance, then you can trump whatever is thrown at you. In the hands of a good Dm though they will see the imbalance and correct it right away. [/QUOTE]
