Make sure primary casters gets the short end of the unfairness stick and you'll see plenty of people proclaim how important it is.
I can't speak for everyone, but what I want is for every class to feel like it is described. I want my fighter to be a master of combat. I want my wizard to be able to make the laws of physics shut up and sit down. I want my druid to be a master, or perhaps a force, of nature. Those things are more important to me than how equally they all perform in comparison to each other. This is why I liked the varying experience tables of editions gone by and much of the OSR.
I don't see how to do that, but I'd love to see it.
The new Paladin isn't nerfed: theybget the same number of Smites in an Adventuring day, the tempo has been adjusted slightly.
Why would anyone say that, it's clearly not true...? Sure, you can have fun with a less than full Adventure day, but that's still the basis of balancing options. This Paladij change does mean that Paladins won't overpwrform as much on less full days: I reckon that Monks and Warlocks will get adjustments the other way, to make them underperformed less on non-full days. On full Advebturijf days, this change has zero effect on the Paladin's output.
They don't really need to as 4E encouraged, to fill out a grid. As you point out, there are options that get the job done already.
No idea, but I get told it by a number of folks whenever I complain about the game being balanced around 6-8 encounters per adventuring day.
I mean, it is balanced around that as the maximum: there is plenty of fun to be had below the balance threshold, bit valance gets wonky. Thus fix makes it less won't to go under the threshold, without changing the balance.No idea, but I get told it by a number of folks whenever I complain about the game being balanced around 6-8 encounters per adventuring day.
