    Default Alchemist Pyrite Reaction Spike Spell cost reduction does not work with SLAs

    Is this intended behavior?

    Normal spells get the expected -50% SP reduction (and show the reduction on hover), but SLAs stay unaffected.

    This is the hover over the pyrite reaction spike tooltip:

    SLA's have never received any SP cost reduction, as they are already cost reduced. So this is fully WAI.

    Yes, same reason they don't get additional costs from metas

    Right, and this is why SLAs are a quite bad idea and quite boring, just my opinion of course but I would more like it if we get no SLAs and all spells are inscribed in our spellbook.
    And if a caster gets a spell several times (best example Phantasmal Killer by Deep Gnome illusionist wizards up to 3 times) the spell in the spellbook should get a special version with 2 or more charges so you can use them without cooldown until the charges are depleted and with reduced spell points costs (because the caster is a specialist in using this spell)
    And no it is not about making casters stronger I'm also ok when casters use spells slower because of such a change and if the spells cost more spell points, I suggest such a change because I think its in principle more fun if all your spells are affected by spell points discount effects or effects who reduce the cooldown of spells (or other things).
