[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 4512602, member: 2011"] You forgot to mention that there is no way to memorize multiple utility spells of the same type (or same level) or to use scrolls in combat in 4E. Need 2 Dimension Door spells today. Sorry. You are stuck doing damage buddy. ;) The difference, at least to me, is that instead of having the option to swap out any spell you want and to use scrolls for rarely used spells, the game now is all about a small core of spells (and it's worse for non-Wizards that cannot even swap spells or powers except when leveling). Not dissimilar to the At Will spell called a Light Crossbow for low level 3.5 Wizards and Sorcerers. The core of spells in 3.5 was player self imposed. The player had choices on a daily basis. The core of spells in 4E is game imposed. The player has some small choices when leveling up, but is still stuck for the most part with his core spells. [/QUOTE]
