[QUOTE="Salthorae, post: 7847033, member: 1095"] I mean, ok. Take out "really hard" from the "shoehorns really hard" of my statement. I think the sentiment still applies. Wizards are limited to the spells in their spellbooks, which they only get to add to on level up and based on how often the DM lets them come across scrolls/others spellbooks/other casters willing to trade or sell access/etc. So sure, they can switch their complete loadout on a long rest, but only to what is in their books. For the Bard/Sorc/Warlock they're letting them drop a spell known on a long rest for ANY other spell on their spell lists. That seems like it veers to hard into wizard territory to me. In the most powerful spells (7th/8th/9th) it really makes your very meaningful and significant choices of spells known at those levels... far less meaningful. If I can know Wish today and Time Stop tomorrow or Foresight, etc. it doesn't matter that I selected Mass Polymorph with my level up. 8th level it means I can learn Demiplane today, create one store stuff and then just get it back to Dominate Monster tomorrow.
