I still don't understand why they changed WD's... machaka's mages are too expensive to be overpowered.

Now the WD's are almost useless .... except for forging fever fetishes.

I won't called a non-capital 1 Fire/1 Death/1 Nature Mage useless, especially at the price of 80 gold. Send them out to battle and you'll see how useful they could be. Their Fire and Earth level can be easily raised to 2 with just 1 gems (each).

Man's Bard is 75 and has only 1 Nature. The only mages in the game who have a better value are Utgard's Seithkona.

The bard is hyperstealthy, caries a standard and agitates very well. It also has spell songs that make its 1N better than it looks.

Different critter.

WD's are ok for combat early, but unless they get a lucky HoF ability, (precision, quickness etc.) they aren't worth the freight. i.e. The micromanagement hell of putting gems (alchemizable no less, what's THAT do to the upkeep math?) on feeble mages to make them slightly less so isn't worth it.

They weren't broken, IMHO.

Machaka has decent mages, but are too expensive.

Only Pangaea and atlantis have such pricey non sacreds.

In any case it's over and done with, I just wish I had known of the "bug" before I bought a bunch as my optimal researcher.
