      I like varying complexities and mechanics between character classes. That's what makes it fun. A wizard doesn't have healing powers, sword-skills, armor, or an affinity for stealth and shadow. In being a wizard you have chosen that you want to be a spellcaster, one who fights with his magic. In being a rogue, you have forgone spellbooks and claymores for sneak attacks and lock-picking. Maybe the NUMBER of traits doesn't add up, but those traits are also in varying areas of that character, and...

      Just joined and grinding through previous posts. I wanted to agree with Blackdrazon. I believe it is very important to have classes that are both simpler and more complicated than the median (yes, that will happen by definition, buy you know what I mean). There need to be novice-friendly classes to introduce new players, and more complex classes for those who like to juggle options.
      The simple option is especially important. I run a youth D&D game and I've watched them run through...

      I don't see why one class can't have both paths.
      A character who chooses to focus on heavy armor and heavy weapons wouldn't have as strong of magic.
      A character who chooses to strengthen their magic would give up the benefits of heavy armor and would be left to fight with staves.
      But either way you would be utilizing the same basic pool of abilities.

      Just because you're proficient with heavy armor doesn't necessarily mean you have to wear it. I've played plenty of Clerics in both 3e & 4e that wore cloth (or no) armor and wielded a quarterstaff instead of a mace. It's all about the choices you make, not the choices you have. You can have a thousand options, but you can only choose one at a time; and that's the way it SHOULD be.
