I think I've waited long enough for a *BUMP*

Apparently most people don't find this isn't an interesting idea. Is there some other way that you would suggest I go about nerfing (there, I've said it) full casters that would make them more interesting? Are the new special abilities I've cooked up to bland? Not powerful enough? Simply uninteresting?

I'd really like some feedback, especially as to how you think these would stack up with the more mundane base classes like barbarians and rogues.
