Over the years I haven't seen to many changes with 920. Sorcerers have demons/animated that helps them. Clerics and empaths have spirits to help them. Rangers have pets that fight for them. I honestly believe that a wizard truly attuned to a certain element should beable to summon a type of elemental. Even if it fills a certain 900 or 500 range. Our familiars seem to be a form for gating or time consuming locate.

Meteor Swarm seems to be the most powerful and useless spell on the books. As being the caster, your going to die for the cast. I can see in a invasion but if they are elders compared to you. Spell is junk, unless you want to kill yourself. So now you have sandstorm. Unlike death clouds or maelstrom that can hit several targets not joined to caster. It's a spell that takes to long to become active and I've seen this spell as junk.

I guess tweaking wizards to the point of uselessness is a option. Sense the only thing pure casters have is their spells.

That would indeed be awesome, E.

The unfortunate (possibly) downside to that is that by giving wizards more ability to live through it themselves, it encourages them to... use the spell... dun dun dunnnnnnnn.

I can imagine the QQ from a large meteor swarm death from an invasion-type scenario.

They could make he spell stronger and make it only a 1 room effected. Possibly not to harm the casters group. Like implode or any other mass killing spell. Instead it kills a wide area and the caster. This makes this spell completely useless and uncalled for. Implosion will deal extra damage according to items in the room. CRAP
All in all, I honestly believe wizards should beable to control their own fate if a sorcerer could command a impolde/demon. (smirks) like 540 its not 100% or demons in that matter. Implode is a guaranteed safe for caster.
