Im having trouble understanding these based on whats shown by the example.

Stack uses a procedure that adds 2 vitallity and through a major addiction turns into 6. However Major addiction says it adds 8 numerical effects so it should be:
Bio, Bestow 10 Vitality through Body and Sepsis. Psych, Compel: You believe you are really tall. Inflict Major Addiction to Stack.


Likewise Mayhem which uses a minor addiction should be numerical effect plus 4. BUT it seems to be plus 1 since it also uses the 2 procedure quanity. As written the effect should be:
Combat, Bestow 5x ‘Maim’ through Tactics. Combat, Bestow 5x ‘Maim’ through Tactics. Inflict Minor Addiction to Mayhem.

Or
Combat, Bestow 5x ‘Maim’ through Tactics. Inflict Minor Addiction to Mayhem. Combat, Bestow 5x ‘Maim’ through Tactics. Inflict Minor Addiction to Mayhem.

And Virtuoso Wine says with its aging it adds a plus 4, but you only add a plus 2 to make it quality 5 not quality 7.

Is numerical effects automatically halved? Is the math just wrong?

Numerical effect takes a bonus equal to the base level of the effect to add an extra instance. For example, since bestow 1 vit is level 2, +8 numerical adds +4 vit. I'm not sure what's going on with the wine though.

I guess that makes sense. Bit of a shame though that you need major investment into technician to bottle stronger amps.

So at it's base level, technician is super powerful for just being able to create game effects that survive between events. It makes sense that it's a significant investment to make that benefit even stronger!

That makes sense, but now I am confused, does it double the effect when the numerical effects reach the amount needed or does it just add one?

Would Major Acceleration plus Trivial addiction do six damage or just 4?

Damage adds a point of damage for a point of numerical effect. It's less efficient than other places numerical effect can be used.

So I guess consumables add the numerical affect to.

So it seems it's more efficient to use additives on low level procedures.

So question

a +4 Numeric Effect on LVL1 Bio Bestow Strength +1/1hr gets you to: Bio, Bestow Strength +5/1hr

a +4 Numeric Effect on lvl2 Bio, Bestow Strength +2 /1h gets you to: Bio, Bestow Strength +4/1hr

Is that correct?

Is recursion and recharge something that improves with numerical effect or just repeats?
