Best Researcher for LA Abysia ?

[Wokeye]

Yeah I favour more cheap mages, as long as you have the castles to warrant it. Recruit Warlocks etc for spellcasting/forging.

Currently I have decided not to play Abysia any more, it is way too frustrating with the old age diseases destroying my researchers and spellcasters, despite Boot of Youth and nice assassins. It has totally destroyed my game a few times now, as my empowered/nice random pick mages drop off the perch.

There should be a bit more earth magic across the ages (demon knights, that scorpion guy), or perhaps some unique mid-late game fire/blood summons IMO.

Alternatively, I wonder about the effect of Boots of Youth taking away the 'old age' (dis)ability entirely, to never have the old age disease.

I think Boots of Youth are a little high up the construction tier.
