I've been doing some investigating into binder skills, since I've never played one and never been tied or trussed.

Judging by an old Ravon log on Dio's, it looks like truss is actually less maledicting than tie, except for the fact that trussed people can't cast at all. They both subtract the same amount of dex, but tie subtracts a lot more hitroll. That seems weird. It suggests that, against a class that can't cast, you'd want to stop at tie unless you planned to drag the person.

What am I missing?
