#42233, "RE: my attempt at a solution (long)"


          

Crazy as it sounds to you, I kind of think that IS the main balancing purpose of the current system. :p

Just MHO having semi recently played a Mage that spent 150-200 hours looking for sleeks with an average level of power, found them, and then spent the next few hundred hours being virtually indestructible. I mean, let me know if you played one and disagree with me - it'd be nice to hear a different view from someone who can PK.

Maybe I am crazy. I tend to see a lot of game balance benefits in odd places.

I agree your way maintains the exploration element and I wish it wasn't buried in tongi's thread, but I think it makes full-time ABS even easier.
