    Edit: To be clear, I like the risk-reward component of TBN. I just don't think it should be susceptible to fundamental scaling issues (as above when incoming damage in dungeons at no mitigation, slows, or stuns, are still too low to pop TBN) or, to a far lesser degree, counter-intuitive design (99% use is 100% cost, but mitigating that 1% more gives it... 0 cost). Which is a lot like how I feel about Living Dead (greater maximum HP = harder to pop LD itself in time if precasting for trimmed CD and --far more importantly-- greater WD healing requirement).
    Oh sorry I might have been unclear, I wasn't directing the whole TBN part to you at all. I just wanted to respond to all the people I've seen complain about its MP cost since Xeno mentionned it a few weeks ago. I know that you didn't advocate for that yourself, the only part in my post that was answering to your quote is the very first part. I tend to agree with most of the posts I see from you on these forums. Sorry if it seemed like I was directing this towards you. I just edited the post to better seperate both parts.

    Ahh, got it. And in that case, as above -- my apologies for not giving you the benefit of the doubt especially against my own defensiveness/confusion.

    Out of curiosity, how do you think we might spare the risk-reward component of TBN without leaving its current (I'd have to imagine, unintended) design vulnerabilities?
