First off, [[SquishyWizard wizards have fewer hit points and fewer "good" base save bonuses]] than clerics or druids (d4 as opposed to d8, and only good Will saves instead of good Fortitude and Will saves) -- this doesn't matter as often as you'd think in practice, especially at higher levels, since 3e ''D&D'' is notorious for its RocketTagGameplay and a sufficiently CrazyPrepared (and [[CombatPragmatist clever]]) spellcaster can [[NoSell all but completely nullify anything that might threaten them]], but the fact of the matter is that a caught-off-guard cleric or druid won't die as quickly as a caught-off-guard wizard, and therefore has a better chance of actually ''surviving'' long enough to [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere get out of Dodge]], set up defenses, or wipe out their attackers. Second, clerics and druids have a "moderate" base attack bonus as opposed to wizards' "poor" base attack bonus, and are also proficient in more weapons -- in other words, clerics and druids don't completely suck at physical combat. Again, this usually doesn't matter, especially at higher levels where one gets enough spells per day to resolve most encounters with magic, but in the absolute worst-case scenario, a completely cornered cleric or druid can at least put up a half-decent fight, while a completely cornered wizard is utterly screwed. Third, druids have a whole bunch of class features, many of which are very good in their own right (as Leeky alluded to in an earlier quote, wild shape by itself makes a lot of melee classes obsolete); clerics get the ability to TurnUndead, plus a smattering of extra spells based on their domains, while all wizards get besides spellcasting is their familiar (and back to the druids, they get an animal companion that serves essentially the same purpose). Fourth, wizards only learn a couple of spells each time they level up, and actively have to seek out spells (in the form of scrolls and spellbooks) to expand their arsenal; clerics and druids automatically learn every spell they can possibly know as soon as they're of a high enough level to cast them. Fifth, unlike wizards, clerics and druids enjoy a degree of spontaneity (a la sorcerers) by being able to convert any spell they have prepared to an appropriate member of their class's "signature" line of spells (''cure''/''inflict wounds'' for clerics, ''summon nature's ally'' for druids); most of the time, they don't want to (again, the way 3e ''D&D'' works, healing in mid-battle is a waste of time -- it's much more efficient to just incapacitate the enemy before they can do the same to you (and, yes, whole essays have been written to make that point)), but it's nice that the option is there. Finally, wizards' spellcasting is significantly hampered by wearing any non-light armor, while clerics don't face any such restrictions and druids can wear any "natural" (read: made of plant matter (read: wood) or leather instead of metal) armor without hampering their class features (but face steep penalties for wearing any "unnatural" armor. Long story short: wizards have more weaknesses and limitations than clerics and druids, and even though most of the limitations can be mitigated, the fact of the matter is that wizards are just plain harder to play than clerics or druids, [[EarlyGameHell especially at]] [[LinearWarriorsQuadraticWizards lower levels]].[[/labelnote]]
