New MP costs seem a bit too high

Casual-friendly does NOT mean incompetence-friendly.

And what does it have to do with incompetence if you play with people you're not familiar with, who don't give a damn about what you say?

In a team-based game, which an MMO is, players who do not listen to the healer and die as a result are incompetent.

Right.
Now take a look at who was called "incompetent" all the time since this thread started?
Healers. For no other reason than complaining about having to deal with incompetent other players and therefore running our of MP.

Don't get me wrong.
I also thought CON was too easy, you could even solo a lot of stuff with elemental spells + selfheal.
I'm even in favor of a rise in MP costs. But this is just too much!
They could have gone from 20 to 50 or 60, not to 120.

Nerfing Mage classes? Fine by me.
But as with any other content, you have to do it considerably, carefully, not EXTREME just because you feel mages are a bit too strong.
