Anti-magic: Useful or just filler?
This gives me 3 points: 1, you must close to melee distance for the brand to be effective, which is like 90% of the difficulty when fighting spellcasters; 2, it's not a guaranteed shutdown, or even a guaranteed hinderance, to the spell-caster, as the ability doesn't always proc (does anyone know the exact rate?); and 3, its brand is useless against non-spell-casting enemies.
These points, especially #1, lead me to believe that anti-magic vs other brands is soething like shields vs 2-handers: In this case, the better option is to simply gank him but quick. Am I doing it wrong? Or is antimagic genuinely subpar?
