plague and poison should be reworked and buffed. Plague for instance is absolutely pathetic.
It was fun in the past, one plagued donkey = an entire plagued city.
I imagine that can still work, but it takes [REDACTED] forever for it to do any meaningful damage, it's useless in PvP, costs too much mana, and has too long of a casting time.
I've always thought it was pathetic when I played my hellion that a journeyman level spell was actually weaker than two of the most effective spells in the hellion spellset: curse and blindness, and both of those spells land at amateur and novice respectively which means that you, as a player, don't have to seek out a religion to actually be effective as a hellion.
Blindness, for instance, is probably one of the most devastating spells in PvP, period. Plague, on the other hand, I only ever cast it in duels and it has potential to backfire by affecting the caster on the next tick.
