[QUOTE="eriktheguy, post: 4928248, member: 83662"] My interpretation is that there needs to be fewer abilities that allow certain classes/roles to perform the same attacks as other classes/roles. For example, a Sorcerer gets an at-will burst 1 that does more damage than a wizards similar powers (blazing star fall with the bonus damage from the sorcerers class feature). Giving them the ability to perform as well as the wizard at its own role makes the classes too samey. They are no longer distinct because they can all do everything. I agree with you in that these powers should at least be nerfed.
