[QUOTE="M_Natas, post: 9304111, member: 7025918"] For me? Arcane Magic is learned Magic [LIST] [*]Wizards learned Magic. In a school, or from a master ... like an IT, Physics or Chemistry student of today. [*]Bards went also to magic school, but they decided to get for The theater / arts program. So their theoretical magical knowledge is less, but they are better with people. [*]Artificers are engineering school. [*]Eldritch Knight - military school [/LIST] - The 5e Warlock is an arcane caster. He learns his Magic and he doesn't loose his Magic, RAW. So what he is, is basically a hacker script kiddy with a sugar daddy who pays for him to get him some shiny toys. His theoretical foundation is very bad. - Sorcerers: they get somehow infused with magic, can connect to the weave and can cast it naturally. They are more akin to magical beasts. They are a class of their own. - Clerics: They are like ... apple users - they worship something and trough that get access to an interface that allows them to do stuff. But they have no Idea how any of that works and it can be taken away at any moment by their provider. Like product as a service. - Paladins in 5e work like ... just strongly believing in abstract ideals/themselves? The 5e Paladin lore is bad and the real culprit that needs to be scrutinised. - Druids: I mean, they work like clerics ... but in practice they are just learning wood magic - so they are more akin to wood wizards. I mean, there is a whole new book (Druid's Call) where they have a Druid wizard school in the forest. So basically - Druids, Warlocks, Bards, Eldritch Knights are all lesser wizards who weren't able to get into a good wizard school, while Clerics are sucking the bosom of their idol and Paladins are paladining and Sorcerers are the one class that was invented to give Main Caharacters their cake without them having to work for it.
