I'm quite concerned about the changes to the spell lvl EQ...especially without any (thus far) corresponding changes to top tier melee...

I was thinking the same...

Decked melees already have much bigger power spike than decked mages... and now the power spike mages have is nerfed.

Seems legit.

Not cool to have blindness be cast 4 levels higher than is inteneded from the game balance. Normal cures do not cure this kind of blindess any more.

You can still get + spelllevel, just not + 4 any more.

From a balance pov, spellevels at 50 are balanced without + spell level gear.

I also agree with Celerity. Meele has been slowly improved thorough +Hit/Dam gear and more saves gear. But not pure mages.

This reduction has little impact on me since I rarely use +spell gear. And might make good on the spreading of that kind of gear to more players, which is good.

I also don't think you could achieve +4 due to eq, due to err... ;)

But this will most likely tone down Good clerics who used to have 2 eyes + 1 radiance. Which is interesting.

SLEEP

What I really wanted to talk about is sleep.

For me this is a bad change.

Sleep spell is mental and can be saved. So could be one of the spells we cannot talk about it. The other I do not know.

Sleep was already a bit gimped gimped to decrease the amount of mental saves needed to save it.

You cannot sleep someone who is already engaged with your pets.

Sleep is opener only. Can't cast it engaged.

Every-time you open with a spell against someone already engaged, they will autoaim to you. Even blind.

There was an already very good counter to sleep. POISON!!!!

For me this looks like favoring meeles who can't bother to get good mental saves because they wanna have uber hit/dam.

And another roadblock for Necros who do not want to depend on pets.

Also, skills like Strange/blackjack have timers because you cannot use saves to make those skills fail. You can with sleep.

If a necro lands sleep on you, you are 99.9% dead.

The change is mostly for PSIs, who like to abuse the dependency of their hypnosis spell.

An abusive psi can kill you without even engaging you. It has been done in the past too. A good change imho.
