[QUOTE="~Joseph~, post: 131911, member: 1805"] ok..... Now I know that you were going for an almost direct conversion from 1E, but there are some balancing issues to look at..... First: The Black wizards are WAY underpowered, Raistlin was the most powerful wizard EVER, but I don't believe he was ever the head of his order (the other wizards to aftraid of what he meay do with that power). How do you expect a black wizard to strike fear in the hearts of all and be powerful enough to chalenge a GODDESS!!! and a powerful one at that, when he's only at 13th level and he' restricted to the 3 smallest schools? Divination, illusion and necromancy have less spells between them than transmutation has by it's self. Another thing, why can't a black mage caste Bestow Curse? It's a 4th level trans spell, now, in my opinion, that's one of the most evil spells below fifth level, so why can't an evil mage caste it? Thirdly: I think you should throw out the level restrictions on teh wizards, or at least make it 20 white, 19 red, 18 black, that way the orders are at least a LITTLE even, if the level cap for blacks was 13 then the whites would have been running the show the whole time, how would a black or red mage ever be the head of the conclave if they're at lvl13 and 15 respectavely when the highest level white is at 18? Level limits for non-human humanoids has been thrown out, so why not with magi? I bet that next year when the DLCS comes out the ENTIRE tower mage system will be changed, my guess is that you won't beable to recignise it when they're done. [/QUOTE]
