[QUOTE="DungeonMaster, post: 2305535, member: 27431"] No. All he needs is 3 of them to negate any caster level gap. At best. You know little about the game system or the spell system by saying that. Your wizard isn't only powerful because of his most powerful spell - he's powerful because of all the lower-level magic he can also cast. A flesh to stone spell is better than a polymorph other (or baleful for 3.5). But often a polymorph spell works quite well enough. Flesh to stone is better because it has larger scope. If you have more lower-level spells you have larger scope in your repertoire. Likewise his magic isn't "outdated" all the time. There are many cross-over spells that are in both arcane and divine classes but at different levels. An MT [i] will [/i] be able to plane-shift earlier than a single classed wizard. When the wizard gets lesser planar binding the MT has lesser planar ally. Same for true seeing and a host of other imminently useful and powerful spells. Go read your book. Puh-lease. I can cope with 15% more dispelled spells when I have 2x the raw number. That's just a caster level argument. You don't have anything left to offer. Oh I get it. The MT isn't broken because it's supposed to "stop" at level 10? I guess you had better go tell the designers that. They've taken a completely different tangent my friend... Seems like you were wrong. [/QUOTE]
