Default Re: Any Man Advice

There is a hidden mechanism which I described above.

Say I'm an S4 caster with two S2 communion slaves, and I cast "Will of the Fates" (S4, 400 fatigue.)

I'm boosted to S5, so I pay (400 / 2) / 3 ~= 66 fatigue.

My slaves are boosted to S3, so they each pay (400 * 2) / 3 ~= 266 fatigue, and drop dead.

I'm not sure how spending extra gems works into this - it may or may not reduce the fatigue spent by the slaves.
