Is it OMG HUGE? Not... really.

In a four combat day, it's an extra five auto-scaling spells per day.

Being able to tempest surge or spellstrike with amped imaginary weapon up to three times per combat is a lot more value than I think you give it credit for. Even twice per combat is clearly a significant boon to longevity and utility.

Under the current paradigm, my magus is highly pressured to prepare shocking grasp a whole bunch of times for good damage, but with three imaginary weapons per combat, suddenly it's a lot easier to devote some of those slots to utility spells instead. That's not just a big deal, it's basically a paradigm shift in how you're allowed to use the class.

Not to mention at higher levels it means effectively getting a level 12 and 18 feat (or more, Wizards could never refocus 3 before this change).

But this really depends on the GM and the campaign. If the GM wants to keep to put players in time pressure, which in most dungeons they are anyway, the rule change has no effect. I don't think the boost is really that substantial, albiet there.

So wait. To clarify.

If you have one Focus spell, you have a 1-point pool.

And two spells = 2 points, three spells = 3 points.

And without any stipulation on "how" to Refocus, you can recover up to your whole pool in 10 minute increments per point?

I got it right?

That's how I understand it, yes.

And one feat allowing you to refocus your whole pool at once in 10 minutes, no matter if it's 2 or 3 points total.

Do we know the type of feat it will be (general, skill, ancestory, class)?
No, we don't know that. I could see it being something like a 7th level general feat or something along those lines. Printing a separate class feat for every class seems a bit redundant.

Thanks for the answer. Yes I agree, and I think a 7th level general feat (or even a 3rd level one) would be great. I see it equivelant to continoual recovery which allows heals to be 10 minutes. I suppose this would obsolete the class feats that currently exist for focus recovery as well.
