However, since the advent of the Warmage and Beguiler, I suspect just allowing Wizards armoured casting would be unbalanced.For 4e, I think just not giving the armour proficiencies would be enough to maintain the Wizard in robes archetype for most cases - Wizards just don't get that much from wearing armour anyway. I would probably advocate replacing the %age with a Concentration check if we're maintaining ASF in any form.As for the one-level dip into Fighter to get the feats... again I don't think that's a huge problem. However, if we're really concerned about it, I'd probably advocate another feat, Armoured Casting, that negates the ASF. Said feat should not be available as a Fighter bonus feat.</blockquote>
