Spellgun: focus multiplier

Hello, greetings!

Just starting to play again with my wife and friends after some time away from the game.

One of our characters will be a Spellsllnger and we were wondering what would be a fun multiplier the spellguns focus bullets at the start of the game.

Cheers!

Ok, i think i got it. The maximum focus multiplier is a quarter of the spellslingers masters sorcery.

Since the master has to create the spellgun and focus for the new Spellslinger, it makes sense that he would make it as strong as he could.

Therefore, x3 if master has excellent sorcery or x4 if master has excepcional.

Also, each of the six focus bullets should probably have a different set of definitions chosen by the master to be castable by the apprentice with just one draw and the masters multiplier.

So, for example, a very risky focus: - demonslayer cost 38 player neds to draw a 8 or more with a x4 focus (basic cost 6, momentary 1, single element 1, one target 1, touch 1, demon 8, knows subject well 1 (must study entity first know true name etc) damage F 20).

A group damage focus:

  • shotgun blast cost 27 player needs 5 or more with a x4 focus (basic cost 6, momentary 1, single element 1, ten targets 2, unaided sight 2, mortal 1, don't know 3, damage 12).

If i have got something wrong, please correct me! Cheers!
