I am usually pretty good with rules, but am having trouble understanding physical adepts who install bioware. What is the bio or essence cost? Is it 2 points of bioware reduces magic rating by 1? Is an adept able to geas this loss and still use the lost ability when able to comply with the geas?
The confusion is page 78 Man and Machine it says that, "Geasa cannot be used to counteract a Magic Rating modified by bioware" So what level of adept abilities could a PC use if he had a Synaptic Accelerator level 2 and a level 2 Orthoskin implanted, as an example? Both have bio indexes of 1. And can he geas the 1 point of magic loss? |
