Yes, keep a barb from learning to read, yes keep us from using IWDs scrolls, yes keep us from getting strong which is the point of a barb. *sigh*

And 20 20 20 stats? Stat potions my friends, use them ,abuse them. Have fun.

The point of classes is to give you a push in a beginning direction. If you feel best leveling with spells earlier on, go priest or wizard. If you wish to jump into swords and bows, be barb or warrior. If you wish to be the guy that makes stuff for others, be alchemist.

Now, every game has a class where you start off at a point where you don't have a directed path. Thief would be the class in this game.

So...I think it's fine.
