I have a general question about the class balance.
It feels like Mages are by far the best class in this game, and that ranged is by far the best way to fight. But I may have missed something, so I wanted to check.
Mages seem to have a clear advantage for two reasons. First, they're ranged, which means they don't have to spend any of their action point to move before they attack (barring some line of sight problem). They get to use all of it for actual actions (spells). They share this advantage with bow Rogues. This is why it seems ranged (mage or bow rogue) > melee.
But they're better than bow Rogues because spells don't miss, whereas arrows can. The effects of the spells can be resisted, but this risk is shared with arrows. Basically, spells have to pass 1 test to work (vs resist), arrows have to pass 2 tests (to hit and vs resist).
Is this right? Because if it is it seems like a huge imbalance to the combat power of each class.
