This is from the official Q&A on the PA site... It seems to explicitly state that completing all five books of Kai series and taking Curing in Magnakai will result in +2 EP per section without combat. Am I reading this right?
I only ask, because I want to make sure that my "By the Book" Hall of Fame has the right settings for gameplay rules. I currently have a "Healing Stacking" option, which lets you either stack Curing & Healing, or not stack them. The "By the Book" rules are to not stack them, but now I'm not sure that's right.
Ideas, thought, opinions?

Of course, the other rub is this quote:
In which the bonus is given if the player completed only *one* Kai book before the Magnakai... At least Healing bonus is said to be given only when the player has completed *all 5* Kai books.
I guess the Healing/Stacking thing could be a By the Book/Harcore difference. You can get the stacking +2 EP "By the Book", but Hardcore would allow for only +1 EP per section. That sounds reasonable to me.

No, by the book (in the newsletters) healing and curing only give +1EP combined, as curing is only an advance. So curing stacking would go under the same heading as weaponskill/mastery stacking

Yeah, Beowuuf is right. For a more complete explanation, see the Heading Healing in the Topical Guide of the Readers' Handbook. Hope it helps!

Hmm. That's what I thought, until I read that quote in the first post. You must admit, it sounds like JD was advocating a +2 total, since the question explicitly stated that LW now had Curing, and could not benefit from Healing, which if +1 is really the limit, is true. But JD says otherwise...
