Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hussar" data-source="post: 6658628" data-attributes="member: 22779">The problem is, and this was the problem I had in 3e too, is that the prevalence of casters means that it becomes an arms race.  It makes it harder and harder to have a moderately low magic campaign when every chest is Warded or otherwise magically protected.  I don't think 5e is as bad as 3e in this regard to be honest.  For one, again, there are just a lot fewer spells out there that have this impact.  What I don't want to see is the paradigm shifting spells come back.  Every higher level adventure presumes teleportation and fly.   Very high level adventures presume Plane Shift and Gate.  That sort of thing.  I don't have to rewrite my campaign setting for the fighters or the thieves.  I'd rather not have to do it for the casters.</blockquote>
