No...no it does not. +15 Ranged Attack and +10 Magic defense. I don't know if you can count, but son, that to me says that it strengthens rangers against mages. lol. Most mages don't rely solely on magic, as it's best not to. Because this amulet doesn't give bonuses to other defensive stats, it makes them more vulnerable to melee and ranged attacks. if they, the magicians, do not bring a melee or ranged weapon, they should be losing because they are opposite the triangle. Another +5 ranged attack with lesser defensive stats seems like a major drawback to me. erm... i dont think that you fully grasp the concept of a combat triangle. the combat triangle is: meele beats range, range beats mage, mage beats meele. kind of like rock paper scissors, yes? So, mage shouldent lose out in the combat triangle just because they dont bring another class's weapon to a fight. (and btw, not trying to flame, just in case you assume that) What are you talking about. If mages don't bring another way to fight then they should lose to range. They know they're weak to it and they should take their own risks. oh, wait, silly me. I thought he was talking about meele too. :wall:
