Default Re: Massive fatigue spells

Twan,

I just checked, and the hypothesis turns out to be false. Some casters can overuse gems by more than 100%. I had a D6 caster scripted to do Shadow Blast x6, and his number of gems went like this:

Pre-battle: 20
Round 1 complete: 17
Round 2: 14
Round 3: 11
Round 4: 5
Round 5: 0

Some weird things going on with usage there (at the beginning he's almost conservative), but at one point he's blowing 6 gems on a 100 fatigue spell when he's already +4 on levels.
