AbUsing Summon Ally Spirit.
Posted: Fri Dec 27, 2019 11:12 pm
Having recently hit 5th Circle Nethermancer I've run into all kinds of issues. I have a great DM, and he let's us do all sorts of nifty things, if they're good for the story, but I like having the actual rules in place before I ask him to bend them.
I've been using the Summon Ally Spirit quite a bit since I got it, even though it's useless in combat, dangerous, and generally stupidly difficult to use because of the 30 minute summoning ritual. During the grind to figure out how to get some use out of it, I've come to the realization that Summon Ally Spirit is basically "Whatever talent you want" on a stick, which has led me to some interesting ideas, but I would like some input on the legality.
1. The Forge Weapon/Forge Armor requires eight hours of work for seven consecutive days, but importantly not consecutive hours. Could I theoretically summon the same spirit with the Manifest & Talent powers, enough times each day to fulfill the requirements, and thus have access to high rank Forged Weapons/Armor without a Smith in the group?
2. Can I summon a Spirit with the Blood Share talent, and have it use that ability on me, despite not having... well... blood?
Forget about the morality, I just want to know if the rules work like I think they do
