caster NPCs shouldn't be casting at their current school level, it should be 2 levels below (e.g. lvl 49 wizard mob casts spells up to level 39)

the fix doesn't seem particularly hard, the main issue is finding the evidence to prove this. there's some anecdotes like posts on the Safehouse mentioning how easy casters in Sebilis are to solo, but very little in the way of "X mob casts spells A, B, C"
Thank you, that thread is exactly the issue I was trying to articulate!

Unfortunately I was dead wrong: it is a research issue, not a technical one. And if all the great classicQuesters in that thread haven't found good evidence yet ... well, I don't have great hope that anyone else will turn up anything new before Green [You must be logged in to view images.

Maybe a dev will revisit the issue, see that good evidence is lacking, and decide to value the "hearsay" reports higher?
