If a character takes Arcane Arrester and Astral Hazing, and they have willpower 4, is this enough to be effectively immune to most mages?


Force 8 incoming spell hits astral hazing, turns into force 4 spell.
Force 4 spell hits Arcane Arrester, gets resisted as a force 2 spell.

You can get both of these for 15 BP as a changling. Is this broken?
