[QUOTE="Mouseferatu, post: 1780393, member: 1288"] *shrug* I never found them klunky. I like them a great deal, and when they popped up, we took to them like a fish to water. YMMV, as always, but I'm glad they're there, and I think they work pretty well. As far as the races developing in conjunction with one another, and adventurers needing to be able to use what they find, well, they [i]can[/i]. A halfling can pick up a human-sized short sword and use it. There's just a penalty--a relatively small one, IIRC--to do so. Makes perfect sense to me. In regards other aspects of the conversation, I've played multiple wizard specialists--a necromancer and a conjurer come most immediately to mind--since 3.5 came out, and I've very much enjoyed them both. I don't for one second feel that two schools is too much to give up. Sure, it hurts occasionally, but those extra spells (and particularly the benefits offered by the specialist variants in Unearthed Arcana) are worth it most of the time. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me to see those UA variants as core rules next time around. And given that I've seen [i]far[/i] more sorcerers played than wizards, in both 3.0 and 3.5, I have to figure they can't be [i]too[/i] broken. ;) [/QUOTE]
