No probs with them yet. I'll be trying some stronger ones later on.About your point on counterspelling, remember that first of all to use the counterspell augment, you take a -4 to the dispel check. So a 5th level wizard/10th level AM would have a +6 on a dispel magic, and a + 13 to greater dispelling. The caster check to beat is 21 for your 10th level wiz, so I would have to roll a 15 or better on the dispel magic, and an 8 or better on the greater dispel. Compared to a 15th level wizard, who would need a 11 or better, or a 6 or better for teh greater dispel.So if I'm using greater dispel, then I have a very good chance to counterspelling, but I only get a max of 6 of those per day, and that's if I spend all my extra slots on greater dispels. More likely I would want like 4 greaters or so. So overall, I would probably have to resort to normal dispel magics for counterspelling, and you have a 75% chance of getting through those.Overall, your wizard is going to have more spells than me because of his higher caster level- and he's going to have much more powerful spells. But your right, with all of his other abilities, the AM will most likely win. But he's also 5 CR levels higher than you, if your able to win a 1 on 1 duel with him, then its likely the prc is underpowered. If its a party against one AM, then yes your mage will probably be shut down, but then the rest of the party will be able to help.The AM is very strong against mages as they are supposed to be, but so far I've found there abilities to be useful in a party situation but not overly powerful.</blockquote>
