> I'm not a Master, but Ragers come after me too, because I am a mage, fine, they should. Here's my problem: They are so obviously geared toward fighting Masters, they are beginning to be out of reach to others who don't have a gang-bang party or happen to catch them naked.

> The other day I find myself fighting a rager 9 ranks below me. Because of this it only takes 4 or so spellbanes to get a spell through, and I manage to blind him so he will stop redirecting to me, I have many protections up but am almost dead at this point, go figure. So I finally blind him, and the very next round of combat, he calls 'true sight' and is no longer blind, and proceeds to drive, pull, redirect to me whatever.

So Ragers are granted this ability to heal it, which lessens the power of scourge. I mean, the blindness part of scourge is GREATLY weakened by this ability, especially since true sight can be called in combat. Now, do you see the problem with giving scourge to Master, seeing that is is overpowered unless you give battle a way to counter it's effects, and giving them such power? It may make Battle and Masters more even, but leaves the rest of us in the dust. So now, I get shreeded by ragers (as I should being a mage), but also my spells are rendered useless because either I get spellbaned, or they can just cure my best strategic ones the next round. Would it not make more sense to not let Ragers heal blindness, and have scourge not blind? This may make it harder for masters to fight big mobs by themselves, but that's not why you have your powers anyway is it?
