Obviously let us dismiss anorexia from the get go. Sorcerers have been at this process of forcing you to sip these most naucious of potions for some time. Unfourtunately for them unlike the Knight jj order you mentioned it can be quite simply and effectively avoided. I can only assume your skills at not at Ultimate given your recent change in guild. Perhaps wait until you have achieved the highest levels of your gifts and then put this arguement forward once more.

I seem to remember being a young cavalier and coming up against a devilish bard named Thamyris who made me sip poisonous potions and empty those that I had. It was a tough battle but with time and skill development I managed to best the songman.

Sorcerers are a very specific breed being as they belong to but one city, people can only guess at what problems they face. Repeat battles against them and growth are the only guidelines I can give you.

armsmash sentinel for your fights against Zwartia, Perhaps they last so long because you are not in a position to get a killing blow so your fights are just a prolonged series of stalling tactics. Lots of Alkar, very few offensives, lots of running? Sound familiar? As I have already said perhaps you need to get more of a killer instinct and stop the whining, for now at least, and concentrate on these problems from within.
