exp mods shows a bonus to stealth after casting RM even if I'm not in the room as the mist. And it persists for about a minute after the mist is gone. Casting and releasing shadows gets rid of it. Is it a thing with exp mods or does RM's stealth boost linger longer than the fog?

Will you be taking a second look at the Aethereal Pathways?

Directly relevant to 3.1 - Focus Accuracy increases the accuracy of TM spells, but we now have a TM skill boosting spell. If the buffs won't stack, Accuracy should probably do something else.

More generally, when the pathways were written and conceived Elemental Charge (Manipulative Resolve back then?) regenerated passively. It's now quite a bit more work to keep juice in the pool, but the effects are still sort of minor and in many cases not useful unless you're not casting capped spells (ie: not that useful to experienced WMs). The Charge cost of running a pathway outside your aligned element is also so high that you can't expect to use more than one or two options (those that are in your aligned element) for more than a minute or two, and switching pathways is prohibitively expensive.

TO CLOSE MY COMPLAINING: it's an inflexible system that's hard to use except to train summoning, and could probably use a rewrite.

That and a pony are all I want for Christmas.

I really only use pathways in emergency situations because their fuse is so short, but war mages have SO many tools to call a time-out on combat that I've just been taking a minute to sit and meditate when I want to use another pathway. Much easier now that FoI is back.

>When did FoI get back? I can't get any guild leaders to tell me about it and I asked all of them. My favorite was Tyrsan:

Gak, you're right. I was really tired when I was choosing spells, I think. I geuss it's still broken. I can't remember what anyone said about that.
Well, when we DO have FoI...
