I have no problems with mana as a mage, its just not much of an issue, I always have plenty of potions, and can cast about 5-10 times before I have to drink a potion again.
5-10 spells isn't very impressive, you realize. Spell slinging in Divine Divinity was fun; I felt like Emporer Palpatine in Return of the Jedi, frapping legions of orcs with lightning bolts, then reanimating their corpses. All on less than a half tank of mana. The spell costs in BD appear to be so high that your mage requires an IV drip of blue potion.

Making comments like Mages suck and fighters are weak...my fighter is strong and my mage kicks butt, so I cannot relate.
Fighters are strong -- just boring to play.

I'm not refutting alot of the stuff said here, I agree there should be some changes to fighter skills and the way they work, but I dont know if more skill points is the answer.
If the skills were more general (i.e., slashing weapon mastery, none of this 1H/1H+shield/2H garbage), there would be enough skill points to make a fine warrior... but he'd still be a boring meatshield without any skills he could use beyond sneak and whirlwind.
You will rue the day you opposed me! Begin your rueing! I'll just... sit over here... and watch.
