[QUOTE="Plissken, post: 4683762, member: 58781"] [I]"I am not economically viable." - William Foster[/I] Anyways... I really don't understand why people hated the Vancian system. I LOVED IT! That was the fun of playing the wizard. You start out as this weakling who will probably fall unconscious and maybe die a few times in the start but as you grow more experienced you become this powerful wizard who throws around a bunch of kickass spells. That was the point. That's what makes the wizard a fun class to play. 4e wizard...lame. Still my favorite class but the 4e wizard is like a lazy wizard. 4e wizards have no ambition. They are just content with what they have, and want only a little more...and end there. He/she starts out as 1st level as this person with decent skills and at the end he/she only learns a few more spells but deals only a little more damage, a little larger area of effect, and so on. Then again, that's the same for all the other 4e classes as well. (Note: I play 4e and enjoy it. Don't bash me.) [/QUOTE]
