Full Version: really simple astral combat question re: weapon foci

Sorry if this question is too easy:

How does one determine the damage a weapon focus does when used by an astrally projecting character against another astral projector/spirit.

p199 of my PDF says that it does the same damage as it would on the physical plane BUT do we use the Magician's charisma when determining damage or their strength.

Verbatim I think we use the mage's strength, implied and to my logic, we use his charisma as per p. 192.

Use his Charisma. Charisma is a Magician's strength attribute on the astral therefore the foci does Str/2 + x on the physical and Cha/2 + x on the astral.

thanks. That is sort of what I figured, but I really wanted to check.
