Mantic with 2 alignments Options

[Onasuma]

Howdy folks,

Ive got myself a conundrum. Im playing a force/bene priest as my current project and have hit the snag of "what am I going to do about mantics".

Now, the easy solution seems to be "Make my force miracles goodly", but Id love to hear if anyone else has had solutions to "I want two alignments of spirits to be mantic"

Cheers,

Heather

As my chaotic goodly force/healing priest I have the option of turning force goodly. I am however fighting SECFAPS pretty exclusively, so that path makes sense.

I think people have stuff like “can only cast these spheres regardless, can’t have a third sphere” etc but I’m not too sure

Literally you’ve described route one, I’ve had little to no joy any other way with this problem personally and rightly I think it should probably be a hard restriction on mantics that you lock on alignment and colour

It's possible to do a lesser version of Spiritual Mancer where you only turn Spirits for 1 sphere alone mantic and keep the rest as is.

A couple of options/ideas on top of what others have said.

1 - m/c wizard then do a mini path m/c which gives you limited innates of cast mantically. Or do the same via multirace. M/r can just give you some mantic innates without path/etc if suitable flavour and maybe a small pool of power to turn stuff mantic if you want to avoid pathing altogether.

2 - split your spirits into two pools, a bit like a grey warden. One goodly pool. One neutral pool. Then do a path/mancer route for either one pool at a time (using your 7/8 path slot for the 2nd) or at the same time but with suitable restrictions on what you can cast. Potentially the path only turns 1/2 or 1/3 of each pool mantic.

Broadly I suspect you can get what you want provided suitable restrictions. Eg limitations of how much mantics, or what miracles/spherea you can cast and so on.
