Fine, so all the Shamans who go looking for disease or healing spirits better be damned good at their job, as they'll have to defeat a Might 30 spirit to get the use of a Might 10 one. There will be very very few integrated disease/healing spirits (or Passion Spirits, if I remember rightly.

I thought the whole point of HW was improvising things? Or does this dislike apply only to spirits?
