[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 4351666, member: 54846"] Specialty mages are just that: special. Their focus is much more than the standard player. Fewer people are going to play them. It stands to reason if you have limited space, you're going to present the stuff that's going to appeal to the [i]most[/i] people you can. THerefore, boomwizard is going to attract more than Illusionist wizard. Or to put it another way: I felt that 3e core did specialty wizards [i]horribly[/i]. They didn't feel like specialty wizards, they felt like a wizard who took the advanced class for a subject in Wizard College, while neglecting his grades in two other courses. Until the Warmage/Beguiler/Dread Necromancer, WotC didn't get the specialty mage right. So yes, screw specialty mages in core. I want each one to get the love and attention they should upon creation, rather than a half-assed attempt like many claim the multi-classing is. [/QUOTE]
