I feel the awsome

First Post
There sure is some amazing stuff coming in 08.

Some of the stuff that really jumps out at me and screams holy cow:
-25th level spells just the concept screams awsome. I have visions of 25th level spells dancing through my head like; Level Castle, Wither Forest, or Nuke Enemies from Orbit.
-Level 30 characters thats so friggin cool finally we will get the epic levels we deserved from 3.0 but never got.
-No more running out of spells I mean whats not love about blasting away all day every enounter?
-Bo9S manuvers ramping up the awsome to whole new levels, for too long fighters have been left out in the cold while wizards had all fun. Finally my fighter can do some magic of his own Desert Wind I'm looking at you and cheering!
-Clerics healing the party while they fight dudes what has taken so long to make this happen. Now maybe people might actually want to play a cleric.
-1st level characters who can kick some ass, finally I won't need to skip the first 3 levels of the game to have fun!

I want more previews now!!!

To crush your hopes: It's more likely that the highest-level spells will still be things like Use Meteors to Hurt Many People or Let Rains of Acid harry a whole army. In other words: Spell levels will probably equal your caster level, but the old power scale will be spread out. So the highest level spells will be the more powerful 9th-level spells from 3e. The weakest will be the weaker 1st-level spells.

This means that you get access to a new spell level every level, and you can also put things more precisely. Magic Missile is strong for a 1st-level spell, but weak for a 2nd-level spell in 3e, but if you spread it out, you can turn it into a 2nd-level spell, or maybe third-level spell (since there will be 30 levels, things might be spread out further, so new spell levels 1, 2, and maybe 3 will be the old 1st-level).

Now maybe people might actually want to play a cleric.

Never had any problems with people wanting to play a 3e cleric. Might be because they can be better fighters than fighters.

So you really don't believe level 25 spells will be epic? I got the impression that levels 21-30 were going to be built in epic levels.

I think spells level 1-20 will be the equivalent of spells level 1-9, while spells 20+ will be epic spells.

Thats the kind of chocolate I want in my peanutbutter!
Lets have some real epic spells not ones that take a week to cast or any of that other drivel from the epic level handbook.
 

This level of excitement feels as weird to me as the folks who have decided that 4e is going to be no fun. I can understand enthusiasm, but... yikes. :D

I'm told that the 4e levels 1-30 take up the "adventuring space" of the current levels 4-14. I'm not sure how epic the top level spells will be, but it'll be fun to find out.

Umm. To each his/her own, I guess.

If those visions become true, I have a very clear vision of me not playing 4e ever.

This sounds even worse than my worst prejudices against anything epic.
