Virtually all the daily and encounter spells pretty much boil down to damage+area of effect+energy type+status effect (which only lasts for a round if the spell is per encounter or at will). Utilities are mostly of the avoid damage/get me the hell out of here variety.The problem I have really is that the Wizard is no longer the guy for creative solutions to problems. There's no more using a minor illusion to cover a pit, or throwing a rope at an enemy and animating it. Or transmuting rock to mud to create a mire, or summoning a celestial monkey to check for traps. Everything a wizard does is just a variation on the fireball now.Having now seen all the classes, the Wizard has gone, in my opinion, from being the most interesting class to play to be the least interesting (the rogue, ranger and warlord are probably going to be the most popular classes now).</blockquote>
