Default Re: Excessive mage nerfing in dom-III (?)


There are other ways to recover fatigue. Some new items, e.g..

And you may rest assured that neither mages nor spells have been nerfed into oblivion with Dom3. With 3 different ages, with the early one having a higher default site setting and more, cheaper and more versatile mages, and the latest with more restricted pathes, there has been even more complexity introduced into Dom3.

And don't forget about the new spells, mostly nation-specific ones.

Lifedraining weapons, quickness-driven skelspamming and other things got nerfed because they were really unbalanced no-brainers in Dom2. Note: they are still available, but weaker in Dom3. There might be other possibilities now which are as good in certain situations - which haven't been there in Dom2.
