Man 5e really needs another INT caster and has too many CHA casters too. Every party is full of charismatic dumbfucks which I guess fits with how most players play.
Well, I think the current distribution is far better. A mad mage who studied forbidden magic is a wizard, like all mages who study. A “mage who made a pact with an entity to get power or magic”, by definition, did not studied. A mage who studied and also made a pact can have both classes.
There is the pact of the tome that emphasise the idea that you can get a magical tome to get spells. You didn’t wrote those spells. You still didn’t learn this magic. What intelligence is there to this craft?
Warlock is given the power too. You wouldn’t be able to bargain your spellslots back of it didn’t come from your patron.
Also, if it was knowledge based, you’d use your intelligence, not your charisma.
