[QUOTE="Tsyr, post: 204464, member: 354"] It's both more and less powerfull. Its more powerfull in that there is no limit to spellcasting... at low levels, mages can do some pretty strong stuff, if they are willing to risk the damage. And at higher levels, mages can pop off lower-power stuff all day, pretty much non-stop, as the bonuses to casting threshold rolls basicly make it so they dont even have to roll to see if the spell goes off. I like this though, personaly... it reflects the fact that for a really powerfull archmage type character, some spells are just so far beneath them that they don't even consider them "magic" hardly, just another part of their body (Like using a mage hand spell, for example, whenever they need something off a top shelf, rather than getting a stool) But powerfull spells (Even at higher levels) can sometimes be a bit slower to get off (as in several rounds), and in this way its a bit less powerfull. It's also not easy to say "And at THIS round in combat, this spell will go off, then you rush in, etc..." because a bad roll or two can always screw that up. [/QUOTE]
