[QUOTE="Scion, post: 1570739, member: 5777"] At that point I think that our discussion is over ;) From my point of view there is something seriously wrong with your balance meter, to the point of irreconcilable differences. Sure it may work for you, but it wouldnt work in any game I have been in. Ahh, but you havent said how really. Just that, in your opinion, it is broken. Say you can cast 6th level spells, but you want some extra variety with lower level stuff. So you pay 15k, get the ring, and pick up some 4th, 2 2nd's, and 2 1sts. Good enough. But you are down a slot and some money, along with only getting a few lower level slots. It is nice for versitility, but to gain any real amount of 'power' you'll have to drain it quickly. The higher level you get, when the amount of money will mean less and the slot will mean more, the amount of spells you get from it that are really useful go down. I have seen it in action, whereas it sounds like you are just stating what you feel it would do. That is fine, but I'd like to see what this 'broken' part is, and where it comes from. I never saw it, nor did anyone else in the game I was in. Personally, if I had to choose between being able to double the amount of spells I could cast for a level, or get one extra one known, I would go for the double. Especially as, at the levels we are talking here, the sorc has a very large variety of spells to choose from anyway. Chooseing between one extra 9th level spell known, or a whole pile of equipment, there isnt even a contest in my eyes. The pile wins out easily, miles above the spell. Same with most every other one of those items actually, I merely made the pearl above to try to appease those who felt the others were too powerful. If they feel the one I posted above is too strong then I dont know where they are coming from ;) [/QUOTE]
