I have a question about them. Namely the racial bonuses that give +50% wpa and tpa and +30% wpa/tpa.
Judging from the wording this is only offensive modifiers. "Elf Bonuses:+50% Spell Success..."
Same wording on halfling and faery (only thinking about half of the bonuses on faery ofc).
So the way I understand it is the mod defensive wpa on an elf is:
magic shield * science * raw wpa
and for halflings the mod defensive tpa would be:
TDs * science * raw tpa
while offensive mod tpa/wpa would include the 50% bonus
Since other mods say things like effectiveness and mod tpa mod wpa etc I'm a bit curious about this use of "success" here.
I guess a few will read this and go "what an idiot", but please, tell me if I'm finally understanding this before you mock me. Then mock me :P
Thanks.
