Amen to that!
I always tell my group if my spells are restisted and have never been kicked out from a group for it! By not telling the group who depend in you to finnish of the mob and take out runners is a werry low thing to do and is only one more thing to make our class more hated and for all wizards that dont have a stady group harder to find one !
thats my thougts on this and what i live by!
