Does Bob have to make his HT resist roll by X? Or, since magic in general is weaker where he is standing, does he resist vs X-5?
Regarding resistance - The effect of Low Mana is on the spellcaster's success roll, so Magey would have had a -5 penalty on his skill level with Sleep for targeting Bob in an LMZ. Assuming that is factored into Magey's adjusted roll, Bobby will have to make his resistance roll by X.
