Is there any reason to use Balthasar Gelt? His magic seems hyper-nerfed
In vanilla, he's pretty good because of the stupid buffs he gets to his lore of magic (Metal), but in SFO those buffs are completely gone. While I admit 1 WoM searing doom was stupid, having it cost 14 or 16 or so even with special skills in it seems awful for a really mediocre (and, to be frank, bad) lore of magic.

I guess he gets the nifty Artillery boosts and stuff factionwide, but he feels so much weaker now I don't know why you'd use him over Franz. Just feels like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ caster.
Am I bad or what? IDK, it just doesn't feel fun to use him anymore. I think I got Searing Doom to maybe 14 WoM with skills and quest items...

He's still fun. A bit tough though to get his economy ramped up imo. I played with this and a few other mods with legendary chaos invasion. Not gonna lie, this was the toughest SFO playthrough yet. The initial chaos invasion ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me HARD.

But hey, I consider Gelt to be a "if you want a more challenging campaign choose this" version of Franz.

That works, I guess, but its not quite as fun in SFO. I might just play him vanilla I guess.
