Thats a very good point. With mana accelerator and enormous rage generation warriors never have an issue with casting these 25 mana phantoms each round. Not lategame anyway. Phantom makes fear become obsolete.
I very often used the 2xfear in round 1 and 2 with my mage, and the spell was also offently used in my warrior game as well (Since phantom IS too expensive early game).
I just don't think either spell is overpowered, since none of them was urgenly "needed" in most of the battles.
More often did I cast oily mist+Fire Rain midgame and lategame it turned to Geyser lvl2+Geyserlvl3/Death Star.
The warrior mixed fear with other dissables like slow and trap
When fear isn't a favored spell mid- and lategame it's just not overpowered. It's good but not too good. Phantom was one of the the main reasons of succes in my Paladin + 4 other stack lineup in the warrior game. As mentioned, removing the abilities on phantoms would balance it a bit.
Stone Skin however.... imo it's by far THE best spell AND overpowered too. Nothing comes close, but then again... it's only my oppinion
