Does the Wizard Edge lower the upkeep costs on maintaining a spell?
Upkeep costs are unaffected by the Wizard Edge. The power point cost remains the same for upkeep no matter how many raises you got on the Spellcasting roll. Q: On opposed rolls, does the Wizard Edge count raises from the TN of the spell, or from the opponent’s roll? For example, a spellcaster with the Wizard Edge casts Lower Trait on an opponent, rolling 14. The opponent rolls a Spirit roll of 9 to resist. Lower Trait has a base cost of w. Would the Wizard Edge reduce the cost to 0 for getting 2 raises over a TN of 4, or would the spell cost 1 because of a single raise over a TN of 9? A: Wizard counts Raises over the target number of the spell, so the spell would cost 0. Successful casting, however, doesn’t necessarily equate to successful use. For example, if the Wizard had rolled an 8 versus the 9, the spell would be unsuccessful, but it would only still cost 1 PP because of the Raise over the Spellcasting TN of 4.
