I concur. Thanks to low-level spells like Air Shield, Mirror Image and Shockwave I've found the Virtue to be a very effective territory grabber in the early game. And thanks to her high dominion base her hit points are usually more like 52 or above when she's ready to move. You just have to remember that at some point her role as a pocket SC will have to end, hopefully when that happens she'll have some big devastating battlespells in her grimoire.

You people and your "(almost/quite/utterly) useless)" really need to find another adjective! You just mean "risky" or "sub-optimal because there are things with other qualities that I prefer", or are wrong, more often than not.

Oops, what have I done. I hereby duck and cover behind the excuse that my country has only two official Languages (Finnish and Swedish) to explain my lack of vocabulary. As an evidence I present you the fact that I've never asked what "Något gick fel" means. Rereading my earlier post I indeed did a mistake of using the phrase 'useless' in the final paragraph, which was not my intent. But my hope lays in the fact that it might be evident from my earlier text that I meant more like 'to be used with caution, keep away from too tight places and children under age 6'.

Sorry atul! Non-native English speakers are excused. "Useless" means "without any use" in English. Some native English speakers have been exaggerating and using "useless" when they mean something like "not the best" or "is not something I'd choose".
