right i noticed i made the build in vanilla. A similar in cbm makes the great sage to 44 rps.
magic 1 its ok because you get cheap mages. I would at least get N4 for regen. And I agree growth 0 is advisable I only get 1 because i like it.
In MP i wouldnt bother to get thaum 2 soon as i would site search manually and you can be surprised with your pants down.
Its advisable to raid activelly and more than your opponent because no easy way to counter enemy thugs or pretenders.
I didnt play Yomi in MP but i think that a group of bandits are capable of beating a moderate PD with minimal or no losses.
