No, no, no...Use the spirits base reaction (i.e:forceX2 for a male&female
true form wasp spirit, X3 for queens) for their skill.
Using a force 6 male true form wasp spirit as an example: Damage would be
9M, using 12 dice plus whatever threat rating you assign them for their
skill. However I personally wouldn't add the Manifest or Astral reaction
bonus (10 and 20 respectively) to the skill. No non-munchkin PC could
survive a 9M attack from something with a skill of 22 or 32 dice, unless
that PC is wearing Military Grade armor or Gel packed Heavy Security
Armor, and getting either of those is no walk in the park.
