    It would hurt your effectiveness in both magick and tech because your aptitude would hang around zero

    not really since you get alot bonuses realting to tech/magic aptitude. If it's at middle you get 50% of the disered affect of spells and tech stuff

    I just noticed that my spells got better as my aptitude went higher.
    Anyways I think the game has higher replay value if you play it completey magical one time and full techie the next

    there is not enough levels to attain to be 50/50. It's the biggest mistake to make in the game since youl not be a specialist in anything.

    as far as spells go, a higher aptitude can make a pretty big difference...more damage, stronger summons, and all sorts of other fun stuff. I'm not sure if having a tech apptitude higher than 0 really has any great effect...though a mage will have problems with tech items(i just recently discovered that i cant even trade in tech shops anymore...so much for gathering components for magnus and sebastian....)

    the world is not a fair place. And in a sense it fits. Magic has been around awhile but tech is still new. Just a bigger challenge

    And I bet you're not the best at what you specilazie in, Jinxed... You can't just become the Master of Melee like that. :smile:

    And Wump, Tech and Magick go in cycles, as you can conclude from Vendigroth and that guy in Rosebourough... Though on other hand magick always exists, but technology comes and goes... :???: i dont get it.

    Now you're starting to confuse me. And what's worse is that conversation isn't at all about being a master of melee.
