Wither is fucking Bullshit. Wither has a decent chance of taking 5 years off your life. This aint so bad for most races, but humans and arials who live to sub 100 years. Its completly unfair. I cant understand how something can be placed in the game that can completly destroy a few select races without any roleplay like reason. I have full con with spare trains and i was old age with 60 years. I have about 80 save spell from a rather nice set, (brooch, ruby collar, fortitude, Helm of black, ribcage, black death, robe of black magi) specifically designed for save spell because i heard that if you fail all saves on the wither (-30 str) then you lose age. But it was worthless, ok, i saved against part of the wither (I took -10str only) But the age still came off. With no increase in hours, i was suddenly 65 years old. I deserve a decent response from the imms on this and dont insult my intelligence with a typical response used on newbies. If age death is completly related on your hours and years are just for show, then i guess i shot myself in the foot, but i dont believe this is the case.
How can you say humans are ten times more fragile than elves?
It should remove _HOURS_, not years. Or the equivalent of hours in years. (eg. So humans would lose half a year and elves lose 5, since they live 10 times more years.
A few more and ill be dead of old age.
