I never used the Slayer myself. However, I do see the point about how a Soloing Mage may be tempted or will use the Slayer.

Yes, it should. I'm simply saying that the impact on how you're perceived shouldn't escalate, if the audience remains the same. As for the effect on the protagonist - absolutely. Sort of a Faerun Picture of Dorian Gray.

Consider how many peasants you could slaughter with the Slayer.

All of them.
