I am capped now and it's really annoying that I can't have spells pretty much anywhere i am at. Sure as I train I can start learning spells and be better but you would think they coudl make things or move things to a spot that doesn't strip or burst.

I know this has been discussed millions of times.

If it wasn't for reim I would have bandits and that's it but bandits don't drop chests

Burst isn't hard to train off. My warrior has this:

Arcane Symbols.....................| 140 40
Magic Item Use.....................| 170 70
Harness Power......................| 130 35

And he can wear 401, 406, 414, 503, 509, 911, 101, 103, 107 without bursting. That's a pretty sufficient spellset.

I also like to add bravery sometimes heroism and the empath focus. I am not going to be able to add those in spellburst places. Unless I have like 500 ranks of all magic stuff. Okay
that's a little exaggeration. I don't worry about getting hit that much, but if I don't have the as to hit the thing i am killing then I die.

Iknow lovely bardess. However my dwarf likes to hunt alone. He doesnt always bathe

I'm not seeing people say they need a Dreavening to hunt or whatever, but it does take some training and planning to wear even a basic spellset in a spellburt area. As a square, I find the training necessary to be acceptable. That's my opinion on it.
