Hello All,
So as I read it, it does not seem that you can use Magical Channeling with Higher Manifestation. Higher Manifestation "may *not* be used in conjunction with a Focus"
and Magical Channeling the "Magic carrier instead of what their Focus would normally produce". Is this intentional?
ARB 2.0 Packet version 0.12a final (2/1/19)
Magical Channeling (2 High Magic points, Passive, Celestial only): A character with this High Magic may Channel a Celestial Channeling pool with the Magic carrier instead of what their Focus would normally produce. This choice is made for each individual packet thrown. Lasts until the next Logistics period.
Higher Manifestation (3 High Magic points per purchase, Passive): A character with this High Magic may Channel a specific Channeling element valid for their Channeling pool without using a Focus in that hand. Only elements appropriate to the High Magic school may be chosen; i.e. you need Earth High Magic points to use Higher Manifestation for an Earth channeling pool. This means that they may Channel while holding an object (such as a weapon or shield) in their off hand. The hand selected to use Higher Manifestation must be marked with a symbol at least 1" x 1" on the back of the hand or a glove worn on that hand. Costs 3 High Magic points; this may be purchased multiple times to allow for multiple elements. Higher Manifestation may *not* be used in conjunction with a Focus; if a Focus is used, only elements appropriate to that Focus may be manifested. While it lasts, this High Magic may be invoked every time the character Channels at the character’s choice. A character need not have any Focus on their person to Channel while using this ability.
