[QUOTE="Henry, post: 3381882, member: 158"] Monte made a convincing argument of this, actually; he noted how many spells tend to "fall in the cracks" in a given spell level. Some, like Magic missile, are really a little too powerful for first spell level, but not quite big enough for second level. Others can be just the opposite -- too weak to really be where they are, but they'd stand out like magic missile if you placed them a level below. 20 full spell levels (one for each character level) would allow for a finer gradation of power adjustment, and would also eliminate level 17 from being the "top-out level" for spellcaster power. It would also mean a caster could be given LESS spell power in a given level, rather than a whole two levels' worth of power at once. I don't mind with the present system (I've lived with it for 25 years, after all! :)) but I can definitely see his point. [/QUOTE]
