I'm a bit concerned about large reductions in the cost of UC Talents. Sure, if you compare the cost v damage effectiveness of these Talents compared to Swords etc, they are low. However, this sort of comparison ignores a basic fact: the UC practitioner is always armed. He can't drop or break his weapon. He doesn't need to buy weapons. He can't be "frisked by the guards. In campaign play, this can be a major advantage.
