[QUOTE="Moleculo, post: 119713, member: 1201"] Am i the only one who hears "I want my wizard to cast Heal Spells!" and think munchkin? I dunno, i think that adding healing spells to wizards would be bad for a few reasons. Firstly, the spell would have to really suck in comparison to Clerical healing spells. I mean once you get high enough to really heal a sizeable amount of damage, you might have well taken a level of cleric due to the amount of power you'd lose for having this spell take up a slot. Another thing, i think that being barred from using healing spells is a balancing factor in the game. Wizards have very few hps, and they have no way to heal themselves. How balanced would non-spell casting classes think it would be for a wizard to stone skin themselves, heal all the damage that gets through thier damage reduction, and then toast whoever they are facing?? Hell could you imagine a quickened healing spell followed by a fireball or whatever you'd throw with heh. Another thing is i dont recall seeing how powerful you want this healing to be. It would help us out if you could tell us how much you want. jake [/QUOTE]
