[QUOTE="Kelleris, post: 3652111, member: 19130"] That's true, but "a few" (3-4) mages of 4-5 levels below you would also have an EL at or just below the level of the single mage they're almost-but-not-quite shutting down. And they have to ready actions, and they'll all die messily as soon as you [i]do[/i] manage to get a spell off. Heck, past a certain level, a gaggle of sorcerers with [i]dispel magic[/i] can do the same exact thing for the few rounds those guys are going to survive anyway. I am not seeing the problem here. I would tentatively use that as a standard option in certain situations, in fact, for instance if I wanted to emphasize counterspelling in a campaign for some reason, and I don't think it would be too unreasonable. Now all the other stuff that feat does puts it over the top for standard D&D, I'll grant you. But maybe it's just fine in [i]Arcana Unearthed[/i]. [/QUOTE]
