[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 7554881, member: 2011"] So you state. I'm fairly sure that this wasn't the case in the campaign where I posted this thread. We had a great time, myself included. I just felt that being the party Detect Magic Nodwick wasn't the role that I had signed up for. Part of that was my extremely unlucky run of dice rolls for many many combats, and I acknowledge that. But part of it was the fact that many of the options from the spell list were just plain subpar. Charm Person? Good luck with using that on any NPC that you might want to interact with in the future. Suggestion for 8 hours? Get ready to take out your concentration ability for most of the adventuring day. Seriously? I actually came up with an awesome idea for Suggestion in that campaign, and the other players thought it was a great idea until we found out that it was a concentration spell. So, the entire idea that the group was building plans around was scrapped. That was extremely disappointing that my PC was about to shine and it turned into a turd because WotC puts the concentration tag on so many spells. [/QUOTE]
