Re: Pricing of Mages ... is it balanced?
If there's any unbalanced mage out there i would imagine its the Tien-Chi celestial master. The balancing formula just doesnt include the disadvantage that having low astral on an expensive mage is. 1F1A1S2W3H1? for 250 gold... The only possible 3 path (other than holy, of course) is water. And the most common use of W2, forging clams, is hard because there is no base water gem income. Abysia is doing just fine.
Blood mages cost more IMO because they are capable of producing their own gems in addition to casting spells, an ability more than worth its weight in gold.
If anything i would rather see MORE unbalanced mages, because so long as the nations are balanced it just adds more flavour to the game.
