They only origin from the fact that water puts out the fire & fire evaporates water. But earth doesn't suffocate air and air doesn't scatter earth. The concept is very weak, and there's no reason why someone who studies elements should be regularly forbidden to learn all of them.At the same time, forever forget the idea of associating elements with energy typed damage, it just does NOT work unless you either change what are the elements and/or what are the energies; if they keep using Air+Water+Fire+Earth vs Fire+Acid+Sonic+Electricity+Cold, it will never match no matter how they try to fit them.7) wizard specializations should not impose a complete ban on some schools, find out another sort of restriction instead; furthermore, make it so that specialization can be chosen later8) spellbooks rules and 0gp material components should either be mandatory rules or otherwise got rid completely; IMXP they are just "forgotten" because most groups don't bother about them</blockquote>
