I am by far and away one of the most effective classes. A lot of folks forget that most of your spells as a MU are random, and you couldn't prepare but what your chart said so you better be lucky if you didn't know what you would face.  Our wizard had spider climb as their spell at level 1. We joked that we didn't even know if he was a real magic user because he never cast a spell until the 4th session lol.  And if you're playing RAW initiative, spells are slow.  Like, can carry over into the next round slow. That makes a world of difference.  You also had to declare what you were doing at the start of the round. So if it got to your turn and the spell you said you were going to cast wasn't the best for that moment when it got to your turn? Too bad.And I have about twice the HP of other classes, which for a game like 1e where HP are much lower than any other modern edition, it matters a lot.</blockquote>
