There've been a couple of threads where it's been suggested that D&D breaks down into four main level-based categories:
1-5 Save yoursef / grim and gritty
6-10 Save the town / heroic
11-15 Save the country / Wuxia
16-20 Save the world / superheroic.
I'm just wondering if people aren't really conflating character levels with the availability of levels of magic?
Would it be better to put it as:
0-2 Grim and Gritty
3-4 Heroic (Breakpoint is introduction of Dispel Magic and Fireball)
5-6 Wuxia (Breakpoint is introduction of Raise Dead and Teleport)
7-9 Superheroic (Breakpoint is introduction of Limited Wish and Ressurrection)
Would you call a Ftr 14 / Wiz 6 a superheroic character if there were no spell effects above 3rd level?
Would you call a Bbn 6 / Cl 6 a Wuxia character?
