Mage rant.

[Ralath]

@Ralath: Um... probably because I don't enjoy getting hit and most of the time I can cast at least one spell before the monster is back to me, smacking me around? (This is directed at the Mind Drain comment.)

But Mind Drain doesn't DO ANYTHING against mobs. Doesn't do damage so I don't know why you would waste SP on casting a spell that does NOTHING. People have even tested using Mind Drain on Mini Dragon to see if he jumps less or breathes fire less and it doesn't.


Also, believe it or not, you're not the first person to advocate for the Mage. We've heard all these arguments before.


But never from a person who's played all the classes to know the limits of each one. :>
