Virtually infinite spell points

[Lunever]

Earlier in the game, I used the regular means to replenish spell points, like going to Roscoe's at every opportunity (except for very early in the game gold is irrelevant since you can't intentionally spent as much as you earn), or just regenerating with mage staff + rhyme of duotime + if possible an sp regenerating dungeon tile.

However, late in BT3 you find so many harmonic gems that I don't see any difference to a cheated game with infinite sp. I tested casting Divine Intervention and Götterdämmerung at every battle, no matter how few and how weak the opponents have been, and so ended every combat in just 1 round, and still was not able to expend more sp than I found as gems. Harmonic gems are almost as common as small pills in Pacman. I think that's not very well balanced and should be more fine-tuned.

This came up over on the beta threads without any conclusive result in terms of what a solution could be. I wound up playing through BT3 without using any harmonic gems at all and decided it didn't make things much harder anyway...

Better this way than not being able to recover SP at all, I think.

How would you be unable to recover sp? There are plenty of sp regenerating tiles in most dungeons. If you stand on such a tile and use mage staff/yellow staff or better diamond staff/Oscon's staff and play Rhyme of Duotime you're fast-recharging pretty good.
