Range touch in combat

[Berengar]

@eldarin (underscores mine)

According to AM5 page 85 and 98 actually no.

Spells cast with Personal range do not have to overcome magic resistance.

First, your talisman is considered to be apart of you as long as you are touching it.Personal range spells can affect your talisman,Personal range effects in the talisman can affect you, ...

So, you need to maintain "spells = effects" to make the argument conclusive. But:

@"ArM5 p.98 [i

Instilling Effects[/i]"]The effects instilled in enchanted items are designed like spells, but they are not spells.

This holds especially for ArM5 p.99 Linked Trigger effects, which can't be just replaced by spells.

If you wish to rule around this, best discuss this with your troupe.

Cheers
