Is casting spells too weak?
I really had a fun time playing this mod.
From my experience though I never found a real opportunity to utilize the estate mages to cast spells. Their Magic seems very underwhelming compared to the cost in monarch points or money.

The only estate magic which can sometimes be useful in my opinion are the morale modifers.

Even studying magic with your ruler is rather dissapointing in most cases, as only legendary magic seems useful. The cost to get there and still sometimes fail with rng does not feel worth it.

What are your oppinions about the current magic casting system / can we expect sth to change ?

same as you. seems like the spell stuff should carry through the years and be more about developing a specialized school of mages for smaller lords and a broad range of mages for large empires. This could also benefit allies as you may be able to cast spells your allies know and pay them when you do.

having it be personified in a monarch and then flitting away the moment they pass is weak. I can't tell you how many powerful mage monarchs I had die rapidly.

the overall expense is massive, the payoff often underwhelming, and the difficulty in getting to good spells a truly herculean feat.
