Re: Fatigue 100- ?
Spellcasting fatigue makes my head hurt, and I'm sorry to resurrect an old thread, but maybe someone can help me understand better.
Let's say I have a caster with A3 who wants to cast Living Clouds, which requires A4 and has 200 fatigue. If I give him 3 air gems and script him to cast Living Clouds on round 1, will he do it? It seems to me he can use 1 gem to boost to A4, and 2 gems to cover the minimum, and so he can cast it and get 200 fatigue. (first of all can someone confirm that?)
But my gut tells me even though he can technically do it, the AI won't let him, because of some amorphous judgment that this is a bad idea and there is a better spell. Is that true? And if so, what is the AI judging based on? Because I think it's often really hard to ensure that your mages cast high fatigue spells even if you script them right and they have the gems to do it, the AI just says "nah, that's a bad idea." Thoughts?
