The lead designer of PoE does not like Wizards. They represent everything wrong about class design (according to his opinion). Right now even my fighter/tank is using more abilities per combat then my PC Wizard on auto-attack...Its really ironic... Good. Nice to play a system which doesn't dramatically favor wizards. For a change. That is no excuse for poorly balanced abilities or talents.... On my second PoTD play-through I'm fairly confident that bringing a (or another) Druid, Cipher, or a Retaliation Barb with a few CC scrolls is far superior to bringing a Wizard. But tbh, those classes might be OP via bugs and make most classes seem like junk (not just Wizzy).

It almost feels like they ran out of funding for Paladin. -

80% is "Great" according to GS..... and it's 90%+ at MetaCritic. Whats with all the negativity. -
Today on my second PoTD play-through, I learned having another Cipher with a couple of paralysis scrolls >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Wizard. By far. Like, it's not remotely on the same playing-field. Oh beta testers, were ya'll drunk ? (Was using a build similiar to this https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/75905-ultimate-build-highest-dps-and-tankines-in-1-char/ , )

It's probably bugged lol, but the most fun I've had in this game. I'm totally face-rolling everything with a off-tank build built around it. I go in first and Eder behind me. Usually everything ends up killing themselves from Retaliation which works from OSA, before my party can even fire off a shot or before I can even Swing for even more obscene carnage damage.

The casters are kind of limited in builds because of the rest system. -

The latest hotfix isn't out on GoG yet -
While not as tanky as fighter, you can make an extremely hard to kill Barb build that does way more total dmg than nearly any other class. But it could be due to a skill that might be bugged. Max Con/Str, use Drain weapon (I find 2H to be best), use 1 Retal gear, One Stand Alone, and wear HP/DR/Con gear.

Keep Almost everything, except: -I wish first-aid talents scaled better, it would help Soak/Leech tanks . My poor Moon Retaliation Barb is always at max Endurance, yet his HP need frequent camping. -Separate Stealth would be welcome too. -Spell system could use become per-encounter a tad earlier for smoother gameplay.
