They focus primarily on magics that assist them in battle, either offensively or defensively. They have little time for the subtley of magic and focus on bold and daring magicks whose results that are quickly and obviously seen."The story from this appears to be "a warrior who cast spells".  Which has been exactly my point this entire time.  WotC is never going to create a new class that has little to no story and pushes all the lore and fluff onto the subclasses.  They already have four of those-- the fighter, rogue, cleric, and wizard (and heck, even the cleric and wizard really do have some fluff to them.)Look, I'm not dropping these "truth bombs" here because I don't want WotC to create an arcane half-caster class.  I honestly would be fine if they did!  All I'm saying is that if you WANT one to finally get created and stick in the game the same way like the sorcerer, monk, and warlock have... you just can't offer up the same tired schtick that has been done over and over and over before.  Because it hasn't worked.  And if you try it again for 5E, it still won't work.  You NEED something more if you have any hope of seeing it come about.</blockquote>
