[QUOTE="jbear, post: 4627468, member: 75065"] How about this for Magic Missile (keeping in mind Magic Missile used to have multiple targets as the wizard grew in power): Atk: Int vs Ref Dmg: 2d4+Int Special: If the first atk hits, make a secondary attack against a second target 5 from the target Secondary Atk: Int vs Ref Dmg:1d4+Int If the secondary attack is successful make a third attack against a third target 2 from secondary target Third Atack: Int vs Ref Dmg: Int Modifier Or if this is too focused on damage then the secndary target is pushed 2 and the third target pushed 1. Haven't read the whole thread but just my 2 cents.I'm really enjoying 4e. But. The Wizard needs a buff or something to make it cooler and more attractive. Of all of the classes out so far the Wizard is the last class I would want to play myself. If this has been taken into account by WotC Staff and being addressed, I think that will be awesome! Either way it is done, either errata or new At Wills in the Arcane Power Book, I'll be happy. I think he is correct in that the problem lies in the At Wills. I have read on many posts that the wizard is underpowered in general. The Wizard in our game was responsable for taking down the White Dragon Szarthax (forgive the spelling) from the DMG Adventure after pinning it between a wall, the Fighter and his Flaming Sphere. IMO, maybe the most powerful daily available to any class at Level 1. [/QUOTE]
