[QUOTE="wayne62682, post: 3041399, member: 40455"] I'll be honest in that I only skimmed the article, but the issue I come across is that either the whole party has to rest when the Wizard is out of spells (well they don't HAVE to, but you get what I'm saying), or the Wizard is so afraid of running out of spells when there's a chance we might not be able to rest that they won't use any. Ex: In my current game we're in a castle controlled by an evil Wizard with a lot of goblinoid thugs; the party Wizard wants to save her spells for the BBEG so she's cast maybe one spell in two sessions, because we have no guarantee that we can rest before facing him. AND that's using a modified magic system where Wizards only need to memorize a spell once and can cast it as many times as they have slots, not the traditional "fire and forget" method. So.. yeah, something that let a wizard be effective ALL of the time would go a long way to help IMO; I don't like us losing our offensive blasting power because the Wizard player doesn't want to waste the spells against mooks.
