Psychic Power check and Staff Force Weapons question.

Hi there, In a couple of weeks Ill be playing a Librarian and have some questions, I dont own the book my GM owns it and he lent it to me for a few days but I have returned it.

I ws reading the powers chapter of the book and could find references to making a willpoer check each time you activate your power, were Im confused it the part that says that it has a difficulty, It says that the difficulty depends on the psy used and the examples show and ordinary difficulty for unffetered or something like that but I cant find any tables that explain this level difficulty, where is that table or am I reading this wrong?

Also the staff gives I believe +15 incantation bonus, is this a bonus to the willpower check?

I think the game mechanics are pretty solid but the placement of the rules and chapters in the book are preatty confusing, some rules that I believe should be in playing the game are in the game master chapter and other that should be in the GM chapter are in the enemis chapter, just a thought.

It has been clarified since that all Focus Power Tests are made at +0, modified only by your effective Psy Rating, you get PRx5 to your WP.

Invocation is a seperate thing. It's a skill you can take. You spend a full action and make a WP test. If you succeed you get +1 PR if you make use of a Psy Power during the next round but only if cast at the fettered power level. On this test the staff gives you +15.
