The 1pt per magic scale is how it was in Dom2, right? I don't recall magic 3 being a given then. Am I wrong about that, or what's changed now?

Nothing, drain 1 to magic 3 is okay depending on your strategy/pretender.

I would say drain 3 is the problem, as anyone taking that, other than in a 2 player blitz has no chance of winning the game.

When the glamour nerf came in and the E/D Helheim mage was made capital only, Illwinter cracked what was making Helheim so overpowered. So they should have removed all the early nerfs increasing the cost of Helheims sacreds.

Also blesses where meant to be the great new thing with Dom 3 but any good sacred has since been nerfed ever since the game came out.
