Not necessarily all of them.1) Add a second 'Flexible Provision' factor: there would be limited flexibility (+4) and great flexibility (+10). I still haven't decided exactly how to frame these (or limiting factors, for that matter) but the idea is to subsume a great number of ad hoc factors.2) Making backlash d6 Con damage for every 3 points of mitigation. This reduces the average effectiveness of using backlash by 15% and adds some nasty randomness - which I think backlash needs. Its kind of an ugly mechanic, though. Autoimmolator might need to be retooled if I go this route.3) Reducing Specialization mitigating factors from -5 to -3 or -2. Actually, -2 would make more sense (a nonepic Specialist gains a +2 bonus on Spellcraft checks when dealing with effects from his specialty school). 4) Reducing the mitigating factors in the epic [divine] feats from -20 to -15.5) Changing the casting time mitigating factors:1 round ---> -21 minute --> -410 mins ---> -61 hour ----> -101 day -----> -151 week ---> -201 month --> -30</blockquote>
