I have often thought that perhaps specialist magic users in D&D weren't quite distinct enough from general magic users. I wondered about changing the rules so that specialist wizards learn and memorize spells of their specialty school as though they were one level lower than they actually are and that non-specialty school spells are treated as if they were one level higher?
For example a 5th Necromancer could learn and cast enervation since it counts as a 3rd level spell for him but he would be unable to cast fireball because it would count as a level 4 spell to him.
Would such a thing be balanced?
