I had always read the character creation rules as "buy Magic to rating X, implants reduce Magic by their essence cost". For example, you buy Magic 2, get 1 ESS of implants, and you are automatically back to Magic 1.
I just started using Chummer and it works differently than I had imagined. In the same example, you buy Magic 2, get 1 ESS of implants. Your essence and magic max are reduced to 5, but your actual Magic is still 2. Which is correct? Have I been doing it wrong the whole time? If so, this quite literally changes everything. |
