The game was late era. I was playing Ulm and the opponent in question was playing Bogarus.
Bogarus is not an "astral heavy nation" in my book.
It's not just about pretenders getting stopped in their tracks. It's an easily accessible low level spell, which is very, very effective at stopping tartarian gate monsters and the like.
I like it being effective, but not the extremely long durations. As to what the duration should be, it seems very hard to have a civilised conversation about it.
Maybe the open ended d6 + power is too little. Possibly the formula should take MR into account. All I can say is that I find the current ones to be too long and the penetration to be too good & easy to ramp up.
