"Stairhopping" and "casuals" are not words that I would normally associate with each other. Tedious scumming techniques are typically the realm of hardcore gamers; casuals just want to play and have fun. If the game is too hard to be won without tedious scumming techniques, the solution is to make it easier, not force players to use exploits to win.
Incidentally, I don't think either Mist Elves or Chaos knights are particularly overpowered. Barbarian or beastie is still easier than a chaos knight, certainly. Mist elves have a lot of problems due to monstrously low HP and slow leveling. If you're playing a non-caster/archer, they're pretty brutal, actually.

Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.
