[QUOTE="Sir Edgar, post: 409159, member: 7230"] This is not so much about 3e, but more D&D in general. I'd give spell-casters less powerful magic but more hit points. In other words, let them engage in melee more than just standing back and casting spells. After all, Gandalf who is the prototype for many wizard-types (although I think he was more likely a druid-type) fought more often with his sword than his magic. Anyhow, some of the spells in D&D are too powerful. Like at 5th-level, a cleric can bestow and remove curses just like that! Curses should have only particular ways to remove them. They're not all alike! It should be some kind of a quest or something to remove a curse or have to kill the person who bestowed the curse in the first place. As for 3e, I'd just change a few rules here and there, but I really like it overall. It's very tight and well-packaged. More scientific than some may like, but I think it really advanced the game and made it more logical. If I had to change anything, it would just be how some of the books are organized and add more previous edition content. I'd also change a lot of the art. Some of it's quite good, but most of it I just don't care for at all. [/QUOTE]
