So I was doing the turtle guildhest the other day and something hit me: how do enemy conjurers do their thing?


If I'm remembering correctly the CNJ quests made a pretty big deal about needing to draw aether from the land, and needing the permission of the Elementals to do such, to use the art without burning out your own internal reservoir.


So what does this mean for Garlean troops and Mr. Joe Schmo bandit? Are the rules not as strict? Do the Elementals just not care? Am I looking too far into this?
