Genesys is a Toolkit, so why cant we have spells/rotes/rituals that are crossover or defy classification ?

In broad terms, a Wish spell is a conjuration, since you are conjuring a new reality.

It doesn't really defy classification; it just has a very broad applicative potential. So I mean if you were gonna create a spell called Wish and make it have a skill check and everything (which IMO is a horrible idea, antithetical to the whole idea of a Wish spell), it would probably be Arcana or Divine. But I just don't think it fits as a magic skill check.

You're forgetting the most important component of the Wish spell—a very hefty material cost. This is why I suggest not categorizing it as a game-mechanical skill check, but instead making it a narrative element.

That was meant to come across as facetious.?

But yes a costly, narrative, story point driven, formidable casting check.

The reason I disagree with that is the dice results are so good at driving the narrative.

Advantage , threat, triumph, and despair for Wish would be a lot of fun to resolve. And a spell like that should have the possibility of consequences.

Your right that conjuration probably makes more sense. I was tired and being flippant before. I apologize.

update 0.8

I like the opposed checks. A really good balance measure.

I would suggest using Opposed Resilience for spells like Poison Spray and maybe Ray of Frost.
