Obviously it depends on how much karma you dumped into your mage. Even with them being subguilds, there's a simple question to be asked or answered. Is your character a mage that has hunter/warrior/etc skills...or is your character a hunter/warrior/etc with a few magic skills?
If you dump karma in and get a magicker that can actually use their power to deal damage and do some wonky shit, you want the mana to do more with it. Assuming the magicker you chose is a stat boosting type, you don't worry about anything stat wise, and you stick with old rules (agi, anyone?). If you are the poor sap who is going to be spending your small two karma, you probably (barring a rukkian) want to focus on your actual build as a warrior/ranger/etc, and Wis-dump. Even with terrible wisdom on a human, you should have the potential to use a few measly spells.

YOu don't need mana for the new subguilds. Just roll up strength/agility and cast your one buff spell and wreck shit like you want.

I meant like metaphorically. You don't need a lot of wisdom because your method of killing people is going to be like. Going warrior/ruk enchancement and strengthing your self so you can just fucking reel lock people. Or assassin/viv and poisoning your shit.
It'll be like the old HG method of doing things where you went HG elkrosion, threw on elkros shield, and then went to town on people. You only casted once but thats all you need. Now it's just easier and even more broken.
If you have a specific way of killing people, HG elkros shield, and that is all you are casting then you don't need lots of mana because after your first cast you rekt.
Following me?

oh were following u alright, and also noting how likely it is that all those bennies will get tweaked/nerfed by staff thanks to u providing a play-by-play blueprint of all the ways to take full advantage of the new system no surprise if thats how they developed their current system (paying attention to less careful complaints here). it does warm the heart to know they are heeding us (their digital answer to satan) so closely

Seriously, Arm is tumbling down the last arm of the death spiral and unless they reach out quick, oh wait, withdrew my hand because I'm a mean shit. Everyone, go post your account notes and messages from staff, both good and bad, and player kudos, or at least save it to text before this shit finally swirls down the toilet, so you can copy/paste the memories and we can all reminisce, no matter how sad it may be.

(someone tried to slit my throat once, just, pounced, and tried to stab me in the neck with a knife, I grabbed the blade tightly with my hand, but they stated bleeing, it was weird.)

This was a thing before the subguild system. It was just shittier. Otherwise they would make hg magickers not a th- Oh my god. Also non hg magickers is fucking retarded. Your ability to do magic isn't dependent on your fucking mental capacity it's your tie to the other wordly planes and shit. Otherwise it wouldn't be a born trait. Half giants were literally made with magic with human blood so they should be able to cast with it. Not fitting in with the canon is staffs way of saying "Fuck your warrior /ruk combo"

Any word on the skills the new sub guilds got? I don't think I've seen that posted yet.
