Ditch TP in exchange for unique systems.

[northernsky]

Alternatively, since I think the major problem for me (a main mage player), is that on casters TP is useless and just wastes space on the UI. Perhaps a unique system for DoM could be a fair compromise, while experimenting with the aforementioned ideas (or others) on DoW classes.

We have mostly discussed about ways to gain TP, but not much about ways to use it.

Mages don't necessarily have to use, or consume TP the same way the other classes do. There could be modifiers on certain spells, specific combos, or abilities (think blissful mind, necrogenesis, parsimony) based on TP.

TP in this case could be harder to build, i-e longer to accumulate and faster to deplete when the weapon is not pulled (which would actually lead to interesting strategies), but would not be consumed by individual abilities.

Just random examples based on the current system that could promote class differentiation
