[QUOTE="Wolv0rine, post: 3360078, member: 9045"] I made a slight change from your suggestion. You suggestion draining 1 pt. of FAI for lesser spells, 2 pts. for greater spells, and 3 pts. for lesser spells metamagiced higher than L4. I was a little less kind, taking 1 pt. per spell level [i]attempted[/i] (not cast, attempted) for Lesser spells, and 2 pts. per spell level attempted for Greater spells and Lesser spells metamagiced higher than L4. So Conrad’s taking a hit of 1 Faith for the L1 spell, a hit of 3 Faith for the L3 spell, a hit of 4 Faith for the L4 spell, and a hit of [b]10[/b] Faith for the L5 spell. Conrad tries not to cast spells like it’s Mardi Gras. Of course, I’d be inclined to go into the magic items and add something that could bolster Faith, just to be nice. But that’s Magic Items, not Magic. Hmm… Clr5, 17 Wis… that’s 5+3*1.5=12. Clr12, Wis 18 (12+4*1.5=24). They seem right to me. You were the one who suggested making the Faith equation CL + Wis Mod * 1.5, you know. :) Hmm, the way I was interpreting it.. Conrad would have to take a hit to his current Faith of 12 for that 6th level spell (pass or fail the FAI check), which brings him down to 12 FAI… then that 5th level spell’s gonna hit him for 10 FAI, knocking him down to 2 FAI. If anything, I’m thinking the hit may be too high the way I set it. But taking 1 pt. for Lesser spells and 2 pt. for Greater spells basically means that Conrad can try that L6 and L5 spells and have a breezy24 FAI left to play with for the day. And you know, considering the length of a day that might not be the worst thing, really… [/QUOTE]
