Conceptual Balance Series (Mod)

[Turin]

Regarding the conceptual pretender mod, I get the feeling that almost all the human pretenders are still pretty useless. Spending 50-100(1-2 scales) points more and actually getting a decent combat chassis(naga) seems to be a dominant strategy.

In addition most humans seem to be pretty generic. a rime mariner/master druid/freak lord is just an archmage with cold resistance and one path preplaced.

So I´ve modified zen´s mod for myself, so that it raises their skill in their primary path to 2, gives the archmage 1 in every path and raises his cost, gives glamour to the arch seraph, gives the great sage a researchbonus of 20 and raises death on the bog mummy to 2(because you´d much rather take the dracolich or a normal lich than her).

But even with those changes I don´t feel that they are particularly good choices, because specialists are usually simply better than rainbows.
