IMPORTANT! We made a couple of rules mistakes in this conversation. Legend point costs for weaving threads to items have NOT gone away. Also, the typical cost of learning a spell is 100 silver times the spell's circle. Please refer to the relevant sections in the 4th Edition rules. Thanks to everyone who caught our mistakes corrected us.
