How is this for a compromise. When you respawn you have the current rez
effect, plus you only have 10% of your max HPs. Then change the binding
rules to allow casters to bind anyone, anywhere (with a yes/no box). I feel
this would balance the risk/reward factor, and make it so people could not
use suicide binding tactics when fighting Dragons and such.
