Search is overpowered on the PBF. Elven warrior in Fortress.

Maybe that mage is a super power player with elite gear...does that make it different for you or are you now supporting what I originally stated?

This list could get much larger, I just did a very quick and brief search of the last three months of players who have a PBF. Anybody can do it. If you had done it, you would realize that your post is kind of ridiculous. Spellbane is not all you think it is. Try playing a villager before you claim they are all that. But, just for giggles, here are some rangers that I know of off the top of my head that weren't villagers who seemed to have some solid game knowledge.

Nreisshe - 87 mage kills, 1 mage death. Ranger
Derasori - You will have to see for yourself if the PBF comes out. Ranger
Krynna - 31 mage kills, 6 mage deaths. Ranger

And, how about all of the stats for mages who killed without using all of their spells and skills and how about all of the immortals who kill without using slay and all of the bunnies that don't use their lucky feet?

Yes, it is balanced because the numbers for mages are just as equal. And I am sure if you reread everything you posted and take out all the ifs ands and buts of this thread, you will see that the balance is as good as it has ever been.
