So my adept face has the seducer as a mentor spirit. The all advantage is edge boosts cost 1 less for con tests.

1) Are the 1-edge boosts free or is there a minimum cost

2) If the 1-edge boosts are free and since you can spend X edge to reroll X dice are all of those free?   What would be the limit on that usage if they are free?

The Errata release (here) officially added this to the Spending Edge section on p. 46: "Note that nothing can ever reduce the cost of an Edge Action to 0 Edge."

Also, I think people are leaning towards 'the entire expenditure receives a single discount of 1'.

List of situations where Seduction applies:

• 1-Edge Boost 'Reroll one die' still cost 1 Edge (see errata)
• 2-Edge Boost '+1 to a single die roll' cost 1 Edge when used on a Con test
• 2-Edge Action 'Bring the Drama' cost 1 Edge while taking a Con test
• 3-Edge Boost 'Buy one automatic hit' cost 2 Edge when used on a Con test
• 4-Edge Boost 'Add Edge to your dice pool' cost 3 Edge when used on a Con test
• 4-Edge Boost 'Reroll all failed dice' cost 3 Edge when used on a Con test
• 5-Edge Boost 'Count 2s as glitches for the target' cost 4 Edge when used on a target during a Con test

Also, I think people are leaning towards 'the entire expenditure receives a single discount of 1'.

So what you are saying is that if I were to for example buy two automatic hits on my Con test with the Seducer Mentor Spirit I would have to pay 5 Edge (rather than 4)? Interesting.....


Only Edge Boosts you can stack on a Con test (that are applicable for a discount) are the the following two:

• 2-Edge Boost '+1 to a single die roll'
• 3-Edge Boost 'Buy one automatic hit'

Could I reroll 2 die on a con check for 1 edge?

[Michael Chandra]

Under the assumption that it simply gives 1 discount on the full expenditure, yeah that would be the case.

Remember, always reroll your opponent's hits. =D

[Xenon]

Under the assumption that it simply gives 1 discount on the full expenditure

That whole assumption could need an official clarification / errata if you ask me.

Reading the text it sound more like each individual edge boost cost 1 less edge (with a minimum cost of 1 edge), rather than that the whole edge expenditure cost 1 less edge (with a minimum cost of 1 edge).


Difference between the two are not huge to be honest (at least not in the case of Seduction);
In the first case you can stack the 2-edge action 2 times for a 50% save (total cost of 2 edge)
In the second case you can stack the 1-edge action 2 times for a 50% save (total cost of 1 edge).

[Michael Chandra]

Except that the errata note an Edge 'Action' (they meant Expenditure) cannot be discounted to 0, so for rerolls it's the difference between 'can I get any discount or not'.

And yes, it needs official clarification/errata. It's come up. Fortunately, I have no idea what the errata team's opinion is on it, so I can state 'I'm functioning under assumption X'.
