The second issue I find is that Divine Casters cannot Counterspell a Mords, correct?Rangers and Paladins are not included because of their limited spell lists. If there is enough public desire to add them it is possible.
The third issue I find is that, against mobs/bosses, the use of Counterspelling is essentially metagaming what the Player knows a particular mob/boss will do.
For example, if I take my caster to fight the Balor in Nashkel Mines, I'll cue up Counterspelling as I engage the Balor, so that my toon can survive the fight—and hopefully the Balor doesn't spam dispels.
So, in Counterspelling mechanics, does a Dispel counter a Dispel, automatically if in memory? Because then, for low CL builds, there would be a rather simply strategy to employ EVERY TIME when facing dispel casting mobs!!
)...so 2) isn't really a problem, more a strategy. 3) isn't an issue so much as Greater Dispel which caps at 20. Dispel at 15—as it currently stands—may wreck havoc on a few builds before they get Practised caster feat in the build plan. As for 4), I rest my case...oh wait, wrong discussion! But seriously, casters supposedly need a full night rest for memorizing a complete Spellbook. But if greater time between resting is a bitter tasting pill, there is greater casting times to consider, which would slow down casting for mages, which opens up disruption attacks during casting, and such.
