If Magius gets retconned too I will decanonize vetex’s pc (this is a joke mods)
Unless it gets retconned to be some global continent that the AO MC and PK raise together with the power of friendship
Any non-magic users cap out at around top 15
but they can’t because
for some reason they just aren’t allowed to truly be equal
I feel like the AO version of like Martin Luther King rn
Arcane Pangea…
God forbid the magic users are the strongest in the magic based verse 
“I wish for a future where men and women aren’t judged for the skills they’re born with”

strength users ARE MAGIC USERS TOO
I guess warlocks solo everything tho
actually any hybrid probably solos all the purebuilds
and we aren’t even going to talk about savants
Literally multiple of the top 15 are curse users. The number one was literally cursebeard. And within the top 15 also lies Durza who was born magicless. You really just took a random forum comment and ran with it
Genuinely just give it up man
Nuh uh, they’re using what little scraps of magic those fodders can muster.
Getting racist now are we?
If you think the AU is bad, just wait until you hear about my worldbuilding project:
One hundred thousand people are stuck inside a hurricane eye spanning 500 miles in diameter. A hurricane created by magic that spawns eldritch creatures. They’ve been that way for over 300 years.
you mean the one where vetex literally said “magic triumphs all”?
and how that’s just arbitrarily stupid and doesn’t really make sense lorewise?
I will not rest until strength users get justice
ngl the only thing they have over mages is how they can technically still use their skills even with a curse (while mages totally lose access to their magic) but weapon and presumably spirit users can do this too so it’s not really anything to celebrate over
yes
there
brolocks can we 
this guy
mfw lorewise magic users have always been on top of the power hierarchy…
what isn’t clicking about:
strength and weapon users also use magic
and there’s no barriers anymore stopping them from reaching mage levels since minds aren’t real anymore!
Do you happen to read JJK, cuz you sure as hell can’t read. Yes, anyone can train themselves to use traces of magic via months if not years of training (iron leg coating, thermal energy, water kung fu), but any magic user can accomplish what they do with little effort (fire magic, iron magic, water magic)
Talking about the one you were quoting. But again zerkers can still get that magic or an equivalent by either getting a curse or a spirit weapon. Plus they don’t need to do that until they reach top 25-15 where it wouldn’t be too much of a problem for them to do so. You wanted a way for them to level the playing field? That’s it. Sorry its not just getting beefier.
I’ve yet to see any explanation as to how it doesn’t make sense other than you acting like using the magic in the air to extend reach and power is the same as what mages do. Its obviously not, the things mages can accomplish are far beyond just utilizing the little magic energy that zerkers and warriors can use at any given time. Whether or not minds are canon doesn’t affect that its pretty clear people still gotta be born with magic from the get go.

now here’s where it gets hyperweird
-you need to be born with magic to use spells
-zerkers, however, use aura which is presumably trace amounts of magic
-anyone theoretically can become a zerker
-since minds aren’t canon anymore (this is extremely important and it does heavily affect the potential of strength builds) that means zerkers can in theory train enough to reach the same level of potential as a mage in terms of magic/aura usage
so like… zerkers can use magic… and not just that… they can seemingly grant ANYONE magic
why is this just inherently weaker than mage…??? I’m waiting for a genuine counterpoint.
