Why the claim of combat and class balance between the classes is mainly a forum issue. (In my opinion)

[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 6253061, member: 67338"] 1st, a 3rd level druid can only cast 2nd level spells... a 5th leve druid can cast 1 3rd level spell per day. I have a 2e Phb handy, lets look at it's 'balance through xp' (I would not call it balance through campaign) lets grab a few levels of fighter level 2 2,000xp level 10 500,000xp level 15 1,750,000 xp now lets see where that puts us with casters: Wizard: 2,000xp is still 1st level 500,000 xp is 11th level... it is easier to be an 11th level wizard then fighter??? 1,750,000xp is 14th level... um I am confused this seems very random Cleric 2,000xp is 2nd level 500,000 xp is 10th level... 1,750,000xp is 15th level... Druid 2,000xp is still 2nd level 500,000 xp is 12th level... it is easier to be an 12th level druid then 11th level fighter??? 1,750,000xp is 19th level... um I am confused this seems very random so um... anyone want to explain this??? I'm at a loss [/QUOTE]
