I think you are slightly wrong about fire magic here. Fire magic directly decreases your maxage, it will cause your mages to get more afflictions simply because they grow old faster. But I don't think fire magic in itself affects the chance of afflictions the way death magic does. Nature has the opposite effect of fire, it increases maxage. So for example a F2N2 mage will have no affect on age at all, while a D2F2 mage will have decreased maxage and be relatively older, but also a lower chance of afflictions from the death magic. |
Actually, an F2N2 mage will have a longer lifespan than average. This is because nature increase old age level with 25% and fire only decreases it with 5%. This make sense if you think about it. Otherwise a level 4 fire mage would fall over dead the moment its recruited. (max age - 100%) In reality, it will only get -20% age so a single path in nature would be enough to get it to zero. 1*.8*1.25=1
