Features

Increased Siphon Rate

At 1st level you refine your ability to draw metals from a slice, spreading your energy farther in than before, pulling more frequently from the strange, other side. Your cooldown for partial slicing now becomes 1d3 days.

At 3rd lvl your cooldown becomes 1d2 days

At 5th lvl your cooldown becomes 1d3-1 days

Overflowing Storage

At 2nd level you focus in on self-empowerment, feeling at your peak when your metal reserves are fully stocked. For each internal metal and substance store that is at max capacity gain a +2 to your arcane skill as well as an increase of 50 units to your Internal Vis Capacity. These bonuses persist as long as your stores are full.

If all internal stores are at max capacity, the effects of Slice Net are doubled.

Enlightened Flow

At 2nd level you re-visit you ability to control and convert mental. After reaching mark 1 you gain a new perspective of the old techniques taught to you, learning how to tweak them ever so slightly to fit you better. You manage to make 1 ingot translate to 120 units of substance.

For each additional level put into Siphon your unit value increases by 20.

Metallic Filter

At 3rd level your master teaches you how to further connect to your attuned slices. You can now choose which metal you draw with partial slicing. Additionally ingots that have been siphoned can be immediately converted into their substances without an additional Vis cost.

This can be done for one partial slicing attempt, once per day.

Reduced Reclaim Rate

At 4th level you improve your ability to reclaim used substance. The loss rate of reclaiming substance reduces from ½ of the material lost to a ¼ of material lost.

Slice Net

At 5th level you focus on the energy that spreads into the slices, you broaden your reach and can now attempt to draw up to 1d4 ingots through at a time.
