One hint... If you REALLY want to spoil your gm's day...
take shapechange (into tiger) and anti-bullet barrier (personal).
Let 2 earthelementals sustain the spell for (force) days...
O V E R K I L L !!!!!!!! (and a little munchkin too!)

I agree.. shapechange is nasty, but only if you have some form of armor,
without it you will be shot by a fichetti light pistol... BANG!

FOR ALL WANNABE MAGES OUT THERE!!!! (no offense!)
Hellblast does NOT have elemental effect of BLAST!!!
Somewhere in the books (Grimoire I guess) a sentence tells us, that the names
of the spells does not actually tell us about elemental effects...
Of course something called FIRE... should have fire effect, but it does not
need to... This is especially true with ...BLAST! STUNBLAST, HELLBLAST, ...
most of them does not have a BLAST effect!
Look into spell description for actual elemental effects!!!

BTW can one see a astrally active (of course) free spirit with aura masking
as what he/she/it is, astrally active, and attack it, but not knowing what
it is exactly, because aura is hidden??? (hmm.. confusing.. hope you understand
my question! :))

Of course you can use karmapool, because dweller-karma is EXTRA karma!!!
BTW, we made astral quests slightly harder, because our mages have to roll for
magic loss everytime they get hosed up in a quest, but survive...
If they get deadly physical wounds from it they must do 2 (!) rolls then!
