I think things are fine the way they are, though final strike should probably be removed from the game.

2. Give hellions the fear spell to make them less useless in group combat and to even out the advantage given to paladins.
3. Make it so that a non combat caster who is following someone and while casting a spell automatically aborts the spell to follow their target, at the loss of some mana.

I like 2. I like 2 a lot. I've always thought hellions should get fear.
3...I'd prefer a non-combat caster following someone who attempts to cast just ceasing to follow, and stand there and cast instead - allowing the target to get away.

I vote no, because I think being able to cast and then enter with an immediate cast is a valid tactic that can turn the tide of a battle and give an edge to a lesser force.

Also, I'm a little confused. Its been a while since I played a necro or sorc, but I do recall being able to follow someone, cast 'finger of death' (elf pally), begin concentrating on this before being led into the room with said pally, and then the finger of death destroying the paladin. Are they no longer able to cast that spell without the target in the room? If so, thats sad, because I liked that tactic

In short, leave it as it is, it gives casters a necessary edge in combat.

Hellions get intimidate and they certainly do not need fear.

Rikka never final struck. You're mistaken.

I have about 15 ppl in the MC that decided not to participate in IMM RPs for a long time after that that says otherwise, Jhorleb included.

You're wrong. Rikka never final struck. Ever. I've never cast the spell, period.

Did I take part in killing and full junking the MC characters that showed up as Rikka? Absolutely. Then I spent a few hours sitting in Nerina's jail, because Corathir was a tool.

You go on believing whatever you want, but the bottom line is I've never cast FS, let alone at an imm rp.

Peso I think you have me confused for someone else there - I wasn't there for the Garazul RP.

Right, must have been Jadow.

Garazul? I remeber an RP like that where the darkies were winning and we walked in and there were like four back to back holy words and we raped them, then my horse butchered the corpses(back when they could) and we junked their crap to set them backa bit.

Fun times, I don't even rember my priest at that time.

I vote no, although I would say make it to where one can not cast holy word or final strike while moving. Everything else is fine!
