Having another wizard in the group...does it suck?

[QUOTE="Paraxis, post: 6566211, member: 13009"] RPG's are a group activity as such the group should be consulted before new members are brought in. The host of the place you gather at and the DM have more say about the final decision but it is just polite to have the conversation and include all the current players. As to a new player joining and being of the same class as another player, I personaly dislike it and if they were coming in as the class my character is I would express my reservations. But in the end people should play what they want to play and everyone try and have fun. The only thing that would make me so frustrated I would want to change characters myself would be if they came in as the same class-subclass-and fighting style/schtick. In your situation, you should most definitely stop playing two characters, if you stay with the wizard than hopefully you are different schools and prepare different spells than the other wizard all should be OK. Out of combat play up your personality differences, no matter the class you are a different character focus on all the things not on the character sheet that make your wizard unique. [/QUOTE]
