It's Terram, which you would think is easier than Mentem. It is. Sometimes. However, if the spell effects metal the modifier is an additional +2. So, in order to create a spell to reduce the weight of 1 soldier's armor and metal weapons by 50% you need a lab total of 50. Rego at 10, Menetem at 10 and Magic Theory at 10 (Someone check the XP requirements for all that) working with a lab assistant is 36, 14 points shy. Throw in a SCHWEET aura of 6. And we still need 4 pawns of Vis (preferably Terram).Just so my shield grog doesn't get tired toting his armor and is a little fresher on the charge. Perdo Corpus at level 15 and a couple of points in Penetration and problems are generally solved, call it "Finger of Magnum Doom". Try to throw a rock with Rego Terram and the math gets all wonky again. Perdo Terram do dig a hole at range under the enemy, hell spont that.Explain to me again where the "encourages creating cool spells" comes in...I love my group, really I do every single one of them, but gods why they like this game I cannot fathom. I want to like Ars, but it's broken. I'm sure they feel the same way about me and Champions - I can bend that system to do whatever I want. I get it, the design theory, what's going on, how things interact. Ars, confounds me. Every little thing about it leaves me scratching my head.</blockquote>
