There are many Powers in the Fourth Edition which almost duplicate Powers from other classes. Could we take a page from previous editions and just give the same Powers to several classes, just as the same Spells were often given to clerics, wizards, druids and rangers?

:Yes. 4E has created a lot of system bloat by limiting each power to one class only. I agree with your suggestion. Powers should have an entry with the classes that can take the power. Typical candidates for power sharing are Fighter, Ranger and Warlord; Barbarian and Warden; Wizard, Sorcerer and Swordmage, etc. --[[User:4SRD|4SRD]] 01:37, 17 April 2012 (PDT)
