[QUOTE="Khaalis, post: 1463498, member: 2167"] Good questions! Thanks for asking. 1) This is not a bug. This is an "Optional Rule" that would increase the versatility of the class to make them seem more free-form without going to a Spell-Point system and that introduces a fair cost to the versatility. It was included as an "Option" for those that wanted to use the system, and something that could be ignored by those that do not. 2) Weaving a higher level spell to unweave more lower level spells is incorrect. You cannot weave a higher level spell to unweave into lower spells. Weaving specifically states that it is at at-the-time action. Weaving is casting a spell as a Full-Round action. Once you weave its gone, used. You cannot weave a higher level spell-slot for later use. Thus, no... you cannot weave a 3rd + 4th to get a 5th, then unweave the 5th into 2 4th (thus cheaply converting a 3rd to a 4th). What the caster could do is this: 1) Keep their 3rd and 4th level spell slots for later use. 2) Weave a 5th level spell leaving them with 0 spells left for the day. 3) Unweave from 0/0/0/1/1. a) With 15 minutes meditation they could: * Unweave the 4th level spell slot to gain 2 3rd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/0/3/0. [b]OR[/b] * Unweave the 3rd level spell slot to gain 2 2nd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/2/0/1. b) With 30 minutes meditation they could: * Unweave the 4th level spell slot to gain 2 3rd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/0/3/0 then unweave a 3rd level spell slot bringing them to 0/0/2/2/0. [b]OR[/b] * Unweave the 3rd level spell slot to gain 2 2nd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/2/0/1 then unweave a 2nd level spell slot bringing them to 0/2/1/0/1. c) With 45 minutes meditation they could: * Unweave the 4th level spell slot to gain 2 3rd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/0/3/0 then unweave a 3rd level spell slot bringing them to 0/0/2/2/0 then unweave another 3rd level spell slot bringing them to 0/0/4/1/0. .....[b]OR[/b] * Unweave the 4th level spell slot to gain 2 3rd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/0/3/0 then unweave a 3rd level spell slot bringing them to 0/0/2/2/0 then unweave another 2nd level spell slot bringing them to 0/2/1/2/0. [b]OR[/b] * Unweave the 3rd level spell slot to gain 2 2nd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/2/0/1 then unweave a 2nd level spell slot bringing them to 0/2/1/0/1 then unweave another 2nd level spell slot bringing them to 0/4/0/0/1. .....[b]OR[/b] * Unweave the 3rd level spell slot to gain 2 2nd level spell slots bringing them to 0/0/2/0/1 then unweave a 2nd level spell slot bringing them to 0/2/1/0/1 then unweave a 1st level spell slot bringing them to 2/1/1/0/1. etc. Remember that for each 15 minutes only one spell slot can be unwoven. Hope that adequately answers your questions. [/QUOTE]
