Re: PbP Interest Check(And OOC Thread)
Unfortunately I have little knowledge of casting spells. Damn shame I cant cast spells really, but oh well I make do. I think potentially there could be a casting delay for spells that are higher level. Lets say level 1 and 2 spells are instant but level 3+ would take a round to "charge up" so to say. Personally I think things like that are against what I perceive to be the spirit of the game so it is hard to say in all fairness.
Maybe channelling hp/pp to boost a spell would be suitable? Maybe having a delay to cast higher level spells would be more suitable? Maybe you can add in a factor of a spell being blocked or interrupted with a higher risk of interruption as the spell level increases, and if the spell fails then there would be a stun involved? The fact is that I dont know what would be the best way to handle it. Personally I would call it powergaming and try to stop it as much as possible, but I am not the GM now am I?
I think at the base level there should be a risk/reward system involved in spell casting because it is seemingly too powerful. Creativity or just getting sexed should be rewarded more so than just powergaming their way through as some unbeatable spellcaster because the rules allow for it.
