every wizard school have 4 powers, is that the 4º power is give in the final level and is very powerful. It gives a spell slot per day in every level you already have, but you must select two restricted schools. But this don’t happen with de Universalist school. It gives just 2 powers, and don’t give the ultimate power of the last level. It don’t give the extra spell slot too, but you don’t have restricted schools (although I prefer the extra slot, I thing these two negate itselves). Them, I thing the universalist school needs two additional power, or am I wrong?


The thought behind it is that universalist wizard trades in special ability powers and extra spellslots for not having the need to use 2 spell slots for 1 spell from the two restricted schools. To me that is a seriously bad trade off.

Banned should be banned. There's virtually no need to become a universalist at all save for a few on-the-fly metamagic spells. I would choose 1 extra 9th level spell, 1 extra 8th level spell all the way down to an extra 1st level spell AND more specalist powers ANY day.

So yes, universalists should get more powers. Either that or the 2 restricted schools from becoming specalist should become banned again like 3.5 imho.

No offense but I had a really hard time reading this. I agree that the Universalist should get some extra abilities. Here's what some other people think.

There was a design decision after playtesting in beta to scale back the abilities granted to universalist wizards.

Working as Intended.
