The problem with rods isn't the ability to spam them. The problem is that a previous change raised the base damage of spells. Rods operate at very low levels... so most of the damage dealt is base damage.
But... here's another thing. There are methods to reduce pretty much ALL spell damage to near zero.
Without rods or weapons, mages are completely helpless in combat in arenas currently.
Deophite, please don't go whining about rods wrecking the crap out of you if you run around with negative magic resist.

So now people want speed crazy physique based people to mitigate spell damage, be able to block it, AND be able to dodge it completely? Meanwhile, the mage has to SIT THERE TO CAST SPELLS THAT WON'T DO ANYTHING ANYWAY?
Edit: Hah. Post 1337.
I don't see why magic and rods need to be nerfed more if the only people that complain are people that walk around with zero or less magic resist.
