[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 7851356, member: 22779"] Umm, you do realize that there is no actual requirement to scribe spells right? Wizards automatically get 2 spells/level in their book for free. The scribed spells are over and above. Now, granted, the divine casters get their whole list (as they always have) but, again, so many of the divine caster spells are so limited in scope, it really doesn't matter that much - how often is Water Breathing going to be your go to spell on a given day? So, the wizard gets his 2 spells/level + whatever he scribes. The sorcerer gets 2 spells per level, full stop. Bards (more or less) get 1 spell/level. So the wizard and the sorcerer are equal until you add in the fact that the wizard can pay to expand his list and the sorc never can. Meanwhile, the bard is way, WAY back in spells known (as in half as many). So, in what way is paying for scribing a penalty? Wizards, AFAIK, are the ONLY class that can turn gold into direct character power. That's not a black hole, that's a HUGE advantage. [/QUOTE]
