I've played in games where its been ruled invulnerable, could only be harmed by magic, could only be harmed by energy attacks, or most recently (and my favorite so far) that it can only be destroyed if an attack does 500+ points of MD.

How have you or your GMs played this aspect of the spell Energy Sphere in your games?

Unless it specifies WHAT it is invulnerable to, I would just consider it to be straight MDC. MOST attacks, even in this MDC world, are SDC attacks, so you could simply interpret it that way.


Yup.
"Most attacks" = SDC attacks, unless otherwise specified.
It has 500 MDC, that's all.
That's generally enough.

The only reason to limit a char to one ES at one time would be to make the GM's job easier. Thus its a GM call on how many a char can cast at one time.

Actually it specifically states it stays above the casters shoulder. Since Human's have 2 shoulders the max allowable Energy sphere's are there for 2 per human caster.

This is how it is rulled in my world.

Energy Sphere is nice, but I tend to limit energy sphere to one per shoulder of the creature. So if you were a Monster Brodkil Line Walker or a Rahu-Man, you might be able to have four. :)

1) anything above shoulder hight is 'above the caster's shoulder.'
