I don't think any of my suggestions are actually nerfs - most of them are meant to increase the value of the various boons and items for most players. The only true nerf is to the Crystal Ball, and I think it's indisputable that that item is absurdly overpowered - it's essentially the same bonus as Mana Leak provides, only with no penalty whatsoever. Right now it completely outclasses specialty items in their own specialties!

Crystal Ball is right up there with the artifacts in terms of power. I like the idea of having the Crystal Ball require a certain number of charges to activate, thus meaning you can't just spam it to "top off" yourself.

This would mean that for Elves and JJ/Mystera Worshipers it would be as good, or even better, than it is now.

I like the % suggestion. It takes waaaay longer to stack.

Gaining fractional mana points means planning ahead would need a calculator, and I don't like that.

You really don't need a calculator, except super-tight vicious runs.
