I don't think so. Breadth of power is not a problem. Wizards in mythology and fantasy can do almot anything. Being true to that concept is not a problem.Isn't the problem with the wizard its spell list:
- That the Wizard spell list has always been "Every magical effect except healing and resurrection"?
- That because its list of possible magic is so poorly limited that you can't do anything with the class?
- That the community knows this but can't agree on what to cut that the class' base remained boring and you can't dive deep into any element that doesn't have iconic spell giving a classically strong effect already?
The only problem I see is that the spell design lacks dynamic elements that match the iconic wizard battles we've seen in fiction.
