Dev, derailing my own thread. I can't believe it.
What started out as trying to make mages seem a little bit better compared to 6 FP swift crystal rose spam or arbalest "knock you down and do 500 fire damage to you" has turned into something else altogether. While I don't think that a weapon that compliments a character's build (something common in all build) is the sole problem with tank mages. I believe it has something to do with how useless evade is compared to being a tank. Being able to dodge basic attacks doesn't compare to the many autohits that are out there.
This was for helping mages actually want to take more WIL instead of just getting it for "Exceptional Will" and calling it a day.
