I was under the impression that if you use fractal, you'd have to pay enough :light (The actual cost part, in the corner), but you'd still lose all of your :aether (The effect part of fractal). Thus, if you had 18 :light and 3  :aether, for example, the cost of the first fractal would bring you to 9  :light:aether, and the second to 0  :light:aether.

*clears throat*

NOTES: "Katharsis" is a Greek word that means "purification". This spell purges your elemental composition of all impurities, and allow you to use Light to pay for anything.
Using Fractal while under Katharsis will drain all your :light.
Using a Fire Bolt while under Katharsis will only deal 3 damage if you don't actually have any :fire. Sure, you can use :light to pay for the spell, but the spell needs actual :fire to increase its damage.
There ya go :P

I consider the "drain all :rainbow quanta" effect to be a part of the card cost. Thus, using an Advanced Spell (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,5696.0.html) while under Katharsis will only drain your :light.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

I wonder how I missed that line originally.  *Self-facepalm*

Anyhow, since it's a "can use light to pay", what's the general split of quantum after you use it? Does it prefer to use  :light before the original element, the original element before  :light, split the two costs evenly, or restrict costs to only  :light?

Light only. I thought most people would assume that...

I would imagine most do. I just tend to be silly when I assume things, and prefer to ask. In this case, there are a few cases that the different versions might come up in that it's nice to keep in mind.

are not fractal with this card use  :light to cost but still drain all  :aether ?

are not that is the card part that it wanna drain all your  :aether   not anything like it cost.

Sigh... Please READ.

No, please don't waste your effort arguing about this. I've already gone through all that in the Overdrive | Hyperdrive thread.

Bottom line is, whenever quanta is depleted while under Katharsis, only :light will be depleted.
