Default Re: Q; Regarding Communion Master/Slaves

Okay, let me make sure I have the math right.

I have 32 communion slaves with an astral of 1, giving them an effective astral of 1 + 5 = 6.

When the communion master casts Master Enslave (800 fat, astral 8), as he is want to do, they will pay - 800 * (8 - 6 + 1) / 32 = 2400 / 32 = 75 fatigue each, plus encumberance? Given the 20 from casting CS in the first place, they'd be unconscious after a single casting. That was about correct from the one single player game where I tried it.

If the original caster (who is looking at 25 fatigue) spends extra gems, does that reduce their fatigue or just his? Can you spend gems to reduce the fatigue below what a level 10 caster would pay, or not?
