I do entirely agree that Hithuals should have more drawbacks to casting than other races. I wouldn't even mind seeing them have a set fizzle rate, almost equivalent to their resistance.

But Leuian runemages spend their lives studying magick, they should be able to cast better than a level 41 spellcasting sword cleric or fighter. It just makes no sense to me that a caster in general wouldn't be able to master their basic vigor to the point that they no longer fizzle. Same goes with all other races.

And really, I know it doesn't happen often, but Frontacians do, also, fizzle their spells - should they be able to fizzle basic spells as well, with magick being second nature to them?
