[QUOTE="Sniperfox47, post: 6300553, member: 6776026"] First of all you misread create. Only the mp in [b]that specific create spell list[/b] adds to the cost, so that 3mp spell with 2mp in create force only has 50gc. Also, just because you *can* create 250gc doesn't mean you have to. That's an important distinction for spellbook pages you find (since they're signiture spells). Emphasis mine. The info on the specific enchantments specifically says that any of the three is against only that specific type. The basic rule of RPGs is that while fluff text may or may not reflect the authors intention, only mechanics text represents the actual rules. It should really be a comma there rather than a semicolon but that doesn't change the mechanics below. +40 defence may be quite a significant amount but against only a certain element, metal and nature are the only two that aren't too limited to be worth the mp. Its listed right under the heading of creatures and virtues and uses not only the same format as them, but also the name of an element rather than a generic titles like "Hedging, All"... It seems pretty clear its refering to a specific spell list of abjure in the same way "hedging, [virtue]" refers to a subset of spell lists. That being said, its not explicitly stated so it is a matter of interpretation, youre right, but intent seems pretty clear... P.S. how do I put a URL in a quote line without it wrapping URL bbtags around it...? [/QUOTE]
