Dungeons And Dragons Online: DDO News: More Info on Spell System

With the big announcements in the latest dev diary, plenty of debate and questions have sprung up. Looking to clarify a bit, Xundau responds to a number of comments:

It is true that with a spellpoint system, wizards now cast their spells spontaneously, making them more similar in some regards to sorcerers. However, wizards will still have a big spellbook and will still have to memorize a limited selection of spells from that book -- the difference is that they no longer lose access to a spell once they've cast it (unless they're out of spellpoints). Wizards will be able to change their list of memorized spells when they rest.

I can't wait to see how the spell point system works in-game, but in the meantime, I'll have to content myself by reading the thread. It's in the Members Only section, so it requires registration to read.
