If a caster can utilize both Personal and Fixed mana, how does one figure the recovery times?
Obviously the power source is chosen at the time of casting, and this will control the casting times, but they differ in PP recovery times.
Assuming the caster uses both types before a rest, what is the PP recovery rate?
- Do the points spent have to be tracked separately (something I’m hoping to avoid)?
- If so, which points are recovered first?
- Could a caster draw from multiple sources fore a single spell?
It has been suggested by my players that I just average the recovery time, but this seems to nerf the ability, somewhat, and demands a cost reduction on buying sources past the first one to compensate. On top of that I don’t think it makes logical sense, which is AS important to me as simplicity.
Anyone have experience or suggestions?
(And please don’t come at me with things like “I just don’t/won’t allow it”. It’s a unique and fun addition to spell casting, and I’ve already decided I WANT to allow it.
Thanks!
