Re: Balance opinions II
High magic scales actually *do* give you more good events, or at least *better* events when your events are good, as several of the best events require magic.
But of course so does every other scale.
Personally, I think that magic-3 is *often* worth it at +2, and drain-3 is best avoided even at -2.
So we go from a situation where the magic scale only has four settings (+3,+1,-2,-3), to one where it only has 2 settings. It's just a wash, frankly, and I see no raeson to change things just for the fun of it.
