At any rate I noticed the Havoc Mage Prc...it's battlecast ability isn't described very well and I wonder how it works. Can a Havoc Mage choose to cast a spell then attack or must he, according to the wording, attack then cast a spell? This ability seems pretty cool, though I am sure it has some method of abuse I am missing. Has anyone ever tried the class ? Is it broken, weak, powerful or average? thanx

I really like it because it gives you the ability to cast "just in case". If something goes horribly wrong and you're completely surrounded, it's nice to be able to drop a Flaming Burst or whatever without worrying about attacks of opportunity. It just seems like a nifty little class that can help with survivability.
