It discourages using multiple spells in a turn, so you're less likely to cast defenses along with your attacks; a big attack is more reliable. It buffs control. 02-04-2023 07:38:58 < ER!smuxi@559-025-147-15.lightspeed.gnvlsc.sbcglobal.net: could you even use multiple spells in a turn in perplexicon? 02-04-2023 07:40:07 < syv!GreatWyrmG@155-004-684-709.biz.spectrum.com: Druujinas has mechanics for spell storing, which would mitigate those somewhat. It's part of why you get so much mana. Even then, it's still questionable--Druujinas deliberately stacks a lot of benefits for defenders, so adding even more emphasis on prepped spells may encourage it to be too rocket taggy, with players prepping tons of huge attacks so they can overwhelm defenders before their defenses attrit them. 02-04-2023 07:40:46 < syv!GreatWyrmG@155-004-684-709.biz.spectrum.com: That said, I also just like the emphasis on larger spells, especially for doing science.
