Did Sanct and Mother Advice notice?

Except (again, the way it was written) it reduces gains and effectiveness of ops in/out -- not the relative twpa of you when you're not opping. So it should read "-50% gains and effective TWPA for non-self spells" in order to be consistent with your/Persain's articulation of the penalty.

The way it's written, your TWPA would stay the same for DEFENSIVE purposes, but be reduced OFFENSIVELY.

You are correct of course, I misunderstood what you were trying to say.
