would be epic. create fire tied off for a damage-per-round kindof weave, obviously low, and it would take the cost of the weave, and tying it off for same damage every round, would cost 1.5x the starting amount every round, for having the damage and not having to use the timer. (or just to have a sustained campfire)
tying shield off, would take like, 50 pulses after you've shielded the target, to finish it, which still's / gentles the target until the caster decides to undo the tie.
night vision would take like, 190+ sp to tie off for them to last an irl day instead of an hour or so
