Some thought's about the initiative 30(cont.) and 60 mail

a character could at best have a base Reaction of 6, with a Reaction +4
spelllock(or quick.) this makes a 10.
quickness + and intelligence + spell's did not affect the reaction
because there is a seperate spell.
With a second spelllock for Inc. Reflexes +3 (no +4), we have a ini. of
10 + 4D6 in the real world.
this make's a max ini. roll of 34

for example a sam with wired ref. level 2, will have
max Base reaction raiting 6
natural dice 1D6
reaction increase from wired 2*+2=+4
extra dice's 2d6
this take's us to 10 + 3D6
this make's a max ini. roll of 28

1. how could someone roll 30 very often("illegal" use of rules)
2. how could a mage get a ini. of 60 (acording to the rules, this is not
possible).


the sam is a little weaker, but he did not have to worry about grounding.

also if the mage need's 2 SA(1 per spelllock) or 2 Free Action's(quick.
/my house rule) to switch on the spell's.(in time when he have to
travel trought a ward, or after sleeping, or ......)
