Miscast On Teclis is Awful
The miscast on every single on of Teclis' spells really ruins playing as him. He starts with two spells that aren't very impactful, but are very spammable - but trying to spam them will just result in him blowing his own head off.

No sympathy. My brother used to use him in small battles and he btfo'd my army every time, on the tabletop back in the day :P

you can counter it with skill points or just use some trinkets with magic damage reductions

Yeah, but you don't start with that stuff. The loot is completely random and you can only get the lessened miscast chance at level 7 - meaning he's pretty much useless until then.

teclis is the second best caster after manfred in campaign at least; a truly powerhouse in head to head with the best speels of each lore he has and + a bigger wind of magic pole thanks to his abilitys. To get items you fight battles you push replanish the faster you can and farm rebels while raiding your own province

Yes, I know he's a powerful spellcaster, which is why it sucks you can't reliably use his spells until he's level 7.

And you can't raid as High Elves, in either SFO or the base game.

Miscast is a mechanic that balance very strong magic. Teclic dont have unique spells so he uses miscast like all other. I have LL mages changes in mind for quite some time. Miscast reduction passive ability for them is not that bad idea to be honest. Something like Slann have in SFO already.

Sound good. It actually isn't so bad on Teclis, since you can just take regrowth, but I tried out Gelt, and he really could use some way to mitigate it.

I haven't found that, I stupidly lost my mage immediately in a battle with vampire coast that I was massively outnumbered in, 3-1 or so. Teclis turned it around for me with hi magic. flock of doom and fireball seemed to disintegrate their army. No miscasts, maybe luckily, but I haven't had that problem, yet lol

Check out Eevi's Legendary Lord Spell Overhauls - they have become some of my favorite mods out there and work fine with SFO. It's really cool how they dont *just* add new abilities and skills, but also buff the Vanilla stuff to be better when cast by the masters. Cant wait for them to add more :D
