I was saying that this log shows Mages are not unkillable because Pacal himself stated that if his axe hadn't broken he believed he would have won/made Morrison run. Considering Pacal is a Legend and Morrison is a super-myth, if a similar sized (Irk, Poet, Fade, someone) was similarly stacked like Pacal I think we might have seen a mage die.
I still think this log shows Mages to be killable.

Yes, I understand, and agree on that they're certainly beatable.
Theres a big difference in making someone run and killing someone though, that was what I meant. Mages have abilities to actually make KILLS, not just make someone run, which is the best most of us can hope for.
That is, and has generally only been my real big concern since I started this mage event thing and started learning about them. That they can make you unable to escape for a long while, while we have no reasonable chance at doing the opposite unless catching one idle/trap location etc, well the usual (very hard) stuff. While Morrison seemingly just slapped a "no escape" spell on me and that was that. No chance. Stat differences or not, that was just a so very easy kill. Or so it seemed from my perspective at least. If Fade, Poet, Irk etc attacks me in a non-trap location I would just giggle and run and thats the end of that fight no matter how huge they are. Which also is kinda boring I guess... but I just think everyone should have a reasonable way of keeping people from fleeing. OR _none_ should have it. Such abilities are so extremely powerful in PVP, it becomes such a great imbalance to just let a few have them. We've seen this fail plenty of times historically as well...
The chains is so far the one thing I find a little unreasonable. The rest of the mages stuff Ive found seems powerful, but not totally unreasonable. Although both Kas and Celephias has cryptically claimed maybe even those chains can be countered. So we'll see. When we get some type of death back I assume we'll really see how effective mages are in PVP... if they dare turn their threats into reality! So far they have seen perfectly fine with having their city and tower raided, stuff borrowed, and secrets exposed etc!:)
