But I significantly enjoy how things are now much more than that, and it feels more like the current ability sets have more utility and more "room to grow", so to speak. I mean look at the old unreleased ability lists, and it was just higher tiers of existing spells.
of course this system has more room to grow. any toddler has more room to grow than a fully grown person. i'm still not sure which spells are being talked about. sure there was a few spells that were very situational, but that is also the reason we were able to customize our bars to what was needed and very few if any were worthless. how many fire spells do you need on your bar out of the 15 abilities you have do you say ok that's a little much? just look between just fire and lightning you have 6 of your total 15 abilities.
