You are, I assume, talking about the hybrid between an adept and a magician, no?

I have to say, phys-mages are my faves, especially since in most of my campaigns, initiation is extremely difficult anyway.

Sure! A troll phys-mage can throw around physical drain spells better than a dwarf can toss stun drain spells. :shudder:

Oh, wait, no. I was thinking a troll would use body to resist physical drain. Either an older edition or a crossed wire in my brain.

All drain is resisted by Willpower. What chip have you been slotting Da9iel and how can I avoid it? :D

Except of course when the force of the spell is higher than your magic attribute. So just take a points worth of cyberware to drop your essence to five and learn all your spells at a rating of six or higher.

Er, it's still resisted by willpower; you just take physical damage if you don't stage it all down.

that's why blood magic rocks, and why phys-mages with the sacrificing metamagic are sickeningly nutty.

Things with bounties tend to make it dangerous to catch them.

You are going to need a bigger gun.....unless you just plan to shoot yourself to escape the fate of having said blood mage telekinetically rip off your arm and shove it down your throat. :wobble: |

Don't forget that the bounty is on living blood mages.

SPAS-22, maximum choke, stun shells. With a skill of 6 and full pool, expect 10 successes on base 1S. Just try not to overflow to Deadly Physical.
Oh, and TN 13 to dodge. ~J |
