[QUOTE="Trainz, post: 1382587, member: 2122"] Listen guys, you have to get back to the source of D&D to understand. Please note that I'm not saying these concepts shouldn't be toyed with, just to make you understand the foundations: Why do wizards can't wear armor ? Because the standard Heroic-Fantasy wizard doesn't have any. Why do clerics wear armor ? Because they're based on templars, hospitaliers, and such "priests" wore armor. That's all there is to it. "Ah ! But are we mindless SHEEP, that MUST follow in the very steps of those who brought us D&D ? Are we pre-programmed DRONES, that are totally deprived of initiative, that we MUST stay in the very mire that is annihilating our god blessed CREATIVITY ? [b]IS THERE NO END TO THE STUPIDITY OF SHEEPDOM ? ? ?[/b]" Well, there's the Battle Sorcerer in UA that wears light armor with no penalty, and there's the Cloistered Cleric in UA that is a combat-light scholarly priest. Great classes. So, I humbly invite everyone (including me) to get off the soapboxes, and just enjoy the game. Try it, you might like it. [/QUOTE]
