Um.... no.

More like 'what are the limits of his/ her power? Essence determines scope and ability. What is the top limit of a essence 3 solar charm can do, assuming maxed out abilities...

[Accelerator]

Well, the question is cause i'm wishing to see how far a solar exalted can go while still limited to essence 3. So what can he do? How can he branch off?...

[Accelerator]

A question. So what determines the ability and essence minimums for a charm?

Essence denotes scale. What about ability?

[Accelerator]

So anyway, looking at the headache that is the repair mechanics....

Artifacts or magitech or whatever.

They are eternal, they are indestructible. They do not break down. So no, magitech or artifacts or whatever you call them do not need maintenance. Their essence patterns are set.

The reason why there are so few artifacts now is because they are either lost, buried in some ruins, destroyed during the Usurpation/ Great Contagion/ Balorian Crusade/ Shogunate wars/ Time of Tumult. Not because magical items break down without someone twisting a few dials here...

Terrestrial exalted do not have shaping defenses that auto fail against Celestials. Neither do they have social charms that autofail against celestial exalts....
