Allowing spells outside Phb accentuates brokenness'. Far too many poorly designed uberspells. 2. I'm seeing a lot of responses here that seem to assume the wizard is only in 1-3 encounters per day. And never gets caught by surprise. And never has to wrestle with the opportunity cost of casting spell x vs y in combat. 3. (ok I thought of another one) cheap construction of scrolls and wands in 3e was a Bad Idea. In earlier editions the cost of having utility spells was less defence or offence, and that kinda disappeared. FWIW I think the wizard in 3e was always lower on the power curve than Druid, Cleric and Psion. Cheers</blockquote>
