Wizards get to reality warping gods Cause Magic, but Fighters shouldn't exceed the main character of Burn Notice? That's pretty much asking people to play two completely different games just because of what class they picked. The funny thing is, no one is disputing that there should be mundane martial characters - that's what low levels are for. But when we get to high level, and the Wizard is wrapping the fabric of the cosmos around their fingers, I better damn well be Hercules and not Michael Westen. Or else if Fighters can never exceed Michael Westen, then Wizards should never exceed the power of the magic wielders in the Conan movies (or some other similar low-power threshold). There should be equal opportunities to be epically powerful (or not be epically powerful, if that's the game you want) for all characters, regardless of class. Also, again, hit points are not wounds so there is nothing magical about a Warlord inspiring another character to make a dramatic comeback (spend a healing surge).</blockquote>
