Chips aren't really the problem. A platinum and a half will net you
60 bonechips from the enterprising newbies in Nektulos. Its the mana and
WAITING that really kill me. I'll usually recast two to five times till I
get a skeleton I like. Well, I just got a new spell so naturally I get a
lot more whites and blue dangerous ones now, but at 15 I'd recast upwards of
6 times to get a blue risky. They cost two bone chips, plus whatever
recasts, but they cost a lot. 160 mana for a 16th level summon. That's
almost a third of my mana (432 max if I recall).
