Ring of Beasts and Spawnpoints
« on: October 02, 2012, 07:10:24 PM »
Ring of Beasts: "Once per round, this Mage may pay 1 less mana when he casts an animal creature spell.

reading the sidebar for Spawnpoints in the rule book, it looks like, technically speaking, it is the spawnpoint that is casting the creature, not the Mage.  So you can't take advantage of the discount when using the spawnpoint correct?

That is correct.

 If the spell is cast by the spawnpoint, you do not get the discount from the Ring of Beasts.

It is better to learn these things now then at a big MW event. We are always glad to help.

To be honest, I think it was more of a case of wishful thinking than anything else.

For a while I wanted to use 2 of the same ring and be able to stack enchants like Ghoul Rot. I understood the reason why it should not be done. I just wanted to do it. :lol:
