Mage 2E introduces radical changes to the various types of Shields/Armors that can be cast. We'll be playtesting these for some time before full introducing them.

  • During the three month play-test, players may choose whether to use the 1E or 2E version of their Armor.
  • 2E Armor requires 1 Mana to activate and is Reflexive.
  • 2E Armor has no 'full day' option. Extending it beyond a single scene can only be done by a Ritual/Extended cast.
  • 2E Armor can Reflexively changed/cast at the beginning of a Turn, for an additional 1 Mana.

See table below.
