Default Re: WotC FIFTH edition D&D

The one thing I hated I have always hated about the D&D/AD&D spell system is the memorization thing. I know its a "leveling the classes" thing. But to say a magic user "forgets" how to use a level one spell unless he/she rereads it always struck me as ridiculous. I did my magic missile and forget how to throw another so I'll throw these darts. Really? Clerics same thing. Your God grants you a spell but hey if you want to change cure light wounds to bless you can't because you did not "pray" for that one. I did an experiment (20 years ago yea yea) where you could pick spells to cast on your spell list. It worked out fine. Maybe after 2.0 this issue was addressed on that, I haven't played since the 90's. Also darts doing 1-3 damage. Maybe the now banned lawn dart but unless you roll a 20 for an eye hit no ■■■■■■■ way a dart does more than 1 damage. That being said I wish y'all were in CO to get a game going.
