[QUOTE="Norfleet, post: 848388, member: 11581"] I've always felt wizards seem to have slipped a bit since the days of 2E. In the old days, casters of all sorts casted one spell per round, and anyone who wasn't a warrior type attacked only once per round. Now, everyone attacks multiple times per round even at moderate to low levels, and the wizard still casts only once per round, with the new haste mods. Furthermore, wizard spell damage has not exactly gone up much, if at all, while everyone's HP seems to have gone up by a factor of 2 or more, since HP gain no longer cuts off after 9th/10th. Clerics, on the other hand, received a hefty boost since the days I remember, with spells now going up to 9th, instead of 7th, and there's a lot more of them. Many of them are now quite painful, to boot, and the weapons selection on clerics is no longer substandard, either. So I say clerics win. [/QUOTE]
