Quick backstory: First time player of a few months. Current group is wizard(wife), cleric(me), fighter, rogue, barbarian, monk. Slowly learning rules and it seems like every combat the two of us playing casters do nothing comparatively. 6th level fighter recently dropped almost 50 damage without even using all of his 6 attacks, he did roll really well. But wizard struggles to deal above 15 even with really good rolls. Seems like all of the martial classes can hit 20+ damage in a round on mediocre to good rolls. Then my buffs/debuts do so little that I have to individually remind each player to account for them or they ignore them.
Am I missing something here or is there just a huge difference in combat impact between spell casters and non?
There inst that much of a discrepancy in power levels that I have seen in 2E. There are a lot of things in this that are setting off alarm bells. A level6 Fighter with 6 attacks? HOW? Are you sure your playing 2E because that's not possible in any way I know of so far.
As casters are you using cantrips or actual spells and if Cantrips are you heightening them?
I think some more info is required to know whats going on.
