You have called the game balanced, and have been balancing it for quite some time while ABS was a factor.
Invokers have their own dam reduction that is fine, shapeshifters can work wel enough without them generally I don't think transmuters will do much out of a group anymore and ap's will lose about all battles.
You can't change the game that dramatically without serious balancing, I don't even want to play until its tested and adjusted
You make ragers stgrong enough to p-ush thru magic users, take magic away and expect everyone to keep up
Nothanks
