A Note on Caster Damage

Below is an excerpt from my Brand PrC:

The three core Brand damage abilities will cause 5d6 fire damage plus the random extra bits on average.  However, this does not scale well in late game and powergamers will be quite uninterested in this class.  So I suggest that Brand (and many of the other casters that I outline in this project) could have their class effects cause d6 damage equal to half of their HD, or half of their total caster levels (those levels that granted them more spells, which would include all of the weird classes that grant partial casting abilities like Pally, Ranger and Bard).

I thought it should be made clear that this is a concern of mine for all casters.
