so, we still have a game where a game where 4 6ths of the players options are dedicated to one of three archetypes, I dunno, just doesn't seem all that great to me :& I can't shake the feeling that the other archetypes are being treated as an afterthought.... Of course I'll wait and see, but I dunno.
You also have to take into account that the magic schools probably will integrate with the warrior and ranger schools, if you will. You will probably have your usual buffs and so on, so it's not all fireball-flinging in the battle.
For example, your sixth sense might tell you that the Lord of the Sixth House is now pretty near so you might spend all your mana giving you more armor, more damage, more resistance and so on and then just go head-on with the dude.
I also am under the impression that mana is not very plentiful in the game, so you'll probably use magic more like a utility. This is just my impression, though.
