[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8308933, member: 63508"] My point is there is a difference between mastery and learning. The wizard and the fighter are masters at their craft. Somuch so that they don't have base ablity of much else outside of the classes. A scholar might want to learn History, Medicine, Nature, Religion, Survival, and Investigation and as well as a few tools and be experts at them like a "renaissance man". Neither the Wizard nor Fighter can do this until high levels when they take several feats. Oh an contrary to popular believe, many fantasy writers include non-wizard experts in their settings as "Wizards don't understand Muggle science" is a common trope. That was the bar already. Wizards are masters at Wizardry not Medicine or Nature or History. The wizard is a Scholar of the Arcane (page 112) not Scholar of the Mundane. It's not limiting. Like I said "Wizards don't understand Muggle science" is a common fantasy trope. It's only D&D where "Everything must be a spell and if its not healing Wizard have access to that spell." Your skill expert fighter is a dum dum. That's the whole point of the thread. [/QUOTE]
