Because from what I'm gathering here in my amateur research, is that with Azuth's SS granting SR 50, and Spell Mantle working only against spells with an SR check, AND that Spell Mantle can be put on a Wand, it seems that taking Azuth's SS over Spell Mantle is the way to go?!?
Follow up question: could one Empower Azuth's Spell Shield for SR 75? lol. If not, shouldn't that be possible?!?
