[QUOTE="Mort, post: 9160202, member: 762"] This depends a bit on the campaign. By the time the wizard can teleport, there are plenty of other world beeting things they can do. Again, this depends on how well the DM ensures the party can't just rest on their own schedule. If they can, arcane eye and spells like it can be a real issue. If not, it's just another resource. The Wizard (in particular) gets LOTS of spells. They don't need the planets to align if they just pick a nice assortment of extremely useful ones, while still maintaining a good combat assortment. If the memorize spell (or whatever it's called...) from the ne playtest packet makes it through to 2024, then we might REALLY see a 3e revival of the wizard never being flatfooted! And yes, I've made my dislike of the feature known in the survey. It's not a question of pointless, it's a question of being more difficult to make matter. The fighter has a clear lack of support in the pillars other than the combat pillar. Yes, they can take steps to mitigate (like anyone else can), but there is not even a twinge of a discussion from WoTC as to what to do there - that's not a good thing. There is HUGE room for improvement, that's my big issue. [/QUOTE]
