Gem usage

[thejeff]

It's not.

An E2 mage can Summon Earthpower, then use 3 gems to cast Curse of Stones.

Without casting Summon Earthpower first, he can't burn an extra gem to cast CoS, since that would be 4 gems and he can only use 2.

Sorry, my brain wasn't working right. I was thinking "E2" meant "E1 after casting Summon Earthpower with 1 gem." Of course if he is a natural E2 he can do Summon Earthpower/Curse of Stones without needing any POTS at all.
