    the point is, pug now needs mana for a very basic standard attack. light strike, so now the mage concerns of mp management come into play. What tools does pug have for mp management? What was once a basic skill equal in stamina cost to a regular attack now uses mp. Its the cornerstone of pug tanking skills, so now that we are melee mages, how do we get back mp? only feasible solution is stygian spikes, but that requires thaum levels, getting hit, and preculdes use of shock spikes. Doesnt make sense if pug has mp use as a part of its basic skill set unless they add mp management skills to the class.

    not to mention jobs and they want to limit crossclass skills, bad look SE
