True point.

That damage gets wasted, however, should you miss- and there is a roll for evasion for each attack, which I will probably change to make each successive hit have a lesser chance of actually hitting. And should the enemy pull out a skill to protect against group spells, or, woe betide you, reflect or absorb the attack....

That does bring up an interesting balance issue, for a 3 sp difference (miniscule when we have between 200 and 300 mana), a ma- spell user deals significantly more damage than someone using a 1 hit attack.

Obviously. That is why it is logical to choose multi-attacks. I think if it worked in a game series, it should probably work here.

Hm, true. It's only true for the first tier of each elemental spell, though. The next two tiers won't be so forgiving in SP use.

So they'll likely lose utility later is what you're saying.  I'm guessing that that is going to be heavily affected by the group with the higher initiative?

Updated character sheet with EXP. Will update again after loot is divided among the party.

Loot won't be divided just yet- you don't yet have a use for the loot and you'll probably only be wanting to use any actual equips like weapons, armor and accessories. Or items.

It depends on how lucky he gets and whether or not you're willing to make use of the terminals.

1 on every floor or so, allowing us to teleport the wounded back to the surface.

...I take it that we can't try using them to drag shadows out of the dungeon? :P

So the trade off is, those people are less likely to use up one of their 'lives' but the team as a whole gets weaker?

Not on every floor, but yes, those people don't lose lives but you're more at the mercy of Shadows. And no, you can't, Shadows can't use those things anyway.

And of course, you'd be leading one straight into the wounded, a non-Persona user and someone who can't fight. :P

When/If someone becomes able to Absorb a damage type, are other characters allowed to heal them by attacking them?
