Art shouldn't become anymore useful than it already is.


Agreed.

Wow. This is an awful idea. Spellcasters are already way better than the hybrids/melee chars. And you want to make it nearly impossible to save against spells that cast even faster than before. Wow.


That pretty much sums up why.

But, let me further point out who is going to get said buff: Sorcs and Necros. No one else (from what I can remember) has the ability to go past 9, so this really only helps two classes. Up the max art for all the spell casters, and you've only furthered the gap between melee characters and all spell casters. Sorry. Nice thinking, but this would fubar things too badly.

PS Oh, by the way, there are people with medium enchanted suits. I know, because I build them all the time for people. :wink:

I would slap a priest or warlock if they went to double digit art. :rant:

I glanced at the first page's posters' names and momentarily thought Aiden, Jada, and Fepel are all back in this game.

It's funny, because now I don't think I like this idea.

I made an effort to subtly couch an insult about how [REDACTED] this idea is in the tones of someone trying to not sound insulting. You know, walk that fine line between diplomatically pointing out glaring flaws and clutching my head in angst over how stupid people are sometimes with their spur of the moment ideas that would completely ruin balance. So I stared at the screen here for a minute and kept having to delete everything I was typing and start over.

I failed epicly.

Just like this idea.

My apologies.

No this is an absolutely horrible idea. Some spells take forever to cast for a reason spell casters would be INSANE.

Despite all of Peso's talk - MR barbs suck hardcore. They are only viable characters with excessive preparation before PK that requires either a tribunal or a friend. They will still die to a competent sorc. They will still die to a competent...tribunal warlock (depressing). Casters own this mud.

Casters do not need a buff.
