How can they be vulnerable to astral attack, and not to a spell attack,
seeing that a spell is an astral entity. Surely the mages must be providing
the astral duality if they are astrally vulnerable.

active they would be vulnerable.

If you're talking about Spellcasting, then they'd not be vulnerable.
