The classic we came up against was the Warlock.  2 Spells, maximum level, recharge both on SR.  If you do 2x SR in a day, you end up with 6 max levels spells per day.  But they’re SR dependent.  If you do 3x PB per day Warlock spells, now you have 6 max level Warlock spells per day (at low levels), no recharge.  The only difference is the former is reliant on the party, rests, and DM assistance.  Why a recharge to get “some“ back, when you can have “all”, but have to manage them (A la Long Rest mechanics)?  You‘re not losing anything…And to be honest, as a Wizard player, I find Arcane Recovery to be stupid.  Likely given to allow the Wizard to have some reason to take a SR (aside from healing).  Wizards honestly have enough spells, rituals, and cantrips, they don’t need recharges…edit: And this is not directed at you [USER=6704184]@doctorbadwolf[/USER] but it also very often feels like the design arguments and discussions are skirting around encounter powers, daily powers, and other 4e nomenclature, and just trying to figure out how to reskin those, while not having it look or smell anything like 4e.</blockquote>
