[QUOTE="Sadrik, post: 4677543, member: 14506"] In 3e, the game was shifting to encounter based systems. Book of nine swords is the best example of this. In 4e they threw that out and split powers into at-will/encounter/daily/ritual powers. I don't like at-will or daily but really like encounter powers and rituals. At-will powers suffer from being too at-will. The image of the wizard eventually knocking down a wall by magic missiling it endlessly escapes my believability standards. At least martial characters can dull their axe or run out of ammo with their at-will powers. Also, what exactly is the purpose of basic attacks when there are at-wills? Daily powers are just a limiting factor that I thought was trying to be abolished in the 3e ruleset, yet here it is in 4e. I have seen various threads trying to basically get daily powers to be used more for various reasons (hated when they miss, want monster to die more quickly, power point system etc). So, there is some like for systems like this. I would love it if we can come up with a way, in this thread, to migrate daily powers into the ritual system which may cause some changes to the ritual system and the easier task migrate at-will powers into the encounter powers system. So here is the bottom line: Let’s make some rules that make daily powers into rituals and make at-will powers encounter powers. [/QUOTE]
