Just my little 3 (Euro)cents (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I thought it was fairly obvious that Dark now plays second fiddle to all Elemental spells. More that few people (including my humble person) raised that issue in the HV release thread. It is good thing that I'm not a 'specialized' mage, more universal approach is more useful IMHO.

In general I think Dark is too mana intensive (need some tweaks on that front) for what it offers, but with all remaining Elem and Holy spells I can live with it.
