I prefer to play spellcasters in RPGs, so I chose to play a wizard as my main character, but I'm feeling very underwhelmed by it. I can only cast one spell per day and then I have to use my sling for everything else. At this rate, I might as well have been an archer.
I don't play tabletop D&D myself, but I know a few things about it, and I've heard that wizards get very powerful later on. The thing is that you seem to level up very slowly in this game, and I'm not sure I have the patience for it.
So, does being a wizard get better? Will I eventually be able to win fights using nothing but magic, and maybe be able to get through more than one encounter without resting? Or is the system simply not designed for that?
