Heh the mage being out of spells argument is like the fighter being out of hps argument. I mean to a mage hps are irrelevent right? who cares about your hps. Without your spells you are like a little bunnie rabbit. but to a fighter hps are everything. you need them to go on. so saying a mage will run out of spells eventually is pretty silly IMHO. If your mage is out of spells he has already kicked some butt!
Anyways the mage might not be the do everything class but the stuff mages do they do more impressively than any other class I think. you just can't compete with the insane abilities of simulcrum,contingencies,time stop,project image. Staff of magi is a free invis whenever they want it. Plus a mage can adapt to any situation. there are scrolls or spells to defend yourself against any enemy and there is spells to tear down any warriors protections. As some previous poster mentioned backstab is a nice way to take out a mage quickly although thats assuming the mage doesn't have defensive spells up in the first place...
Tensers transformation I like but only on fights where I know what I stand. Otherwise I would rather have my mage spells available to me so that I can adapt to the situation as it unfolds.
