Only issue with it is that attacks which are meant to come from the disc appear very close to the feet, but I'd definitely play like this if it were a config option.
I thought it was a joke, some magus players only play the class because of the disc...

Honestly? I don't play Magus because of the disc. Whereas Engineers have lower visibility than normal because they're a small class, Magi really stand out, and I don't feel that's a good thing for an RDPS with a close-range path.

Also the skill is bugged atm, it requires 20 combustion as resource instead of 2 AP.
Nope. It costs 20 combustion. It was changed to stop the ease of build up to full combustion before battle and to prevent bombing.
You have to RoF / Flame Breath to gain combustion now.

While you are at it, can you give Black Orcs a disc?

SHs are even smaller than engies. I see them like this:
- Magus: Large target
- SW/Sorcs/BW: Medium targets
- Engies: smaller than everyone except SH
- SHs: Small targets
So taking into account realm balance, you could say that Magus size compensates SH's size. If you make Magus smaller, then you should also make SHs bigger. My 2 cents.

As it stands, I think Magi need all the help they can get. They shouldn't be penalized when they're already weak, simply because Greenskins have the smallest RDPS.
