Or did I miss something? (again  ;))

Oh! No, *I* missed something. I thought you were statting rituals-as-found-in-the-novels. If not, bind away!

Korwin:

Per exchange you say how much Power you want to cast into the ritual.
The sample Wizards has 5 Discipline, so even if he gets an -4 on his Discipline check, he can cast 1 Power into the Ritual without fail.
The complexity of the Ritual says how much Power needs to go into it.

As long as the Ritual is = or < 10 the Wizards dont need to reasearch/prepare the Ritual (10 efficive Lore with the Focus), so the Big Hammer Ritual needs additional time for the research/preparation.

Archmage_Cowl:
Thanks for setting this all out! You also unintendedly(probably) answered my question about if you can use a single skill to make multiple assesements in a single spell ;D Which it appears you can so thank you very much.

Korwin:
To be honest, I wasnt shure myself.

But since nobody said anything against it (including Iago), I think its correct.
Besides without multiple uses of the same skill, I have no idea how how someone should research/prepare high complexity Rituals (without sacrifying someone/breaking the law).

Biff Dyskolos:
You know what I don't get about Binding? It's all based on Stress/Consequences and Taking Out the critter. Shouldn't Refresh cost also be a factor too? Two spirits with Superb Endurance have 4 stress and 2/2/4/6/8 consequences.  But if one has a refresh cost of -5 and the other -10 the complexity of the binding is the same.
