Free Standing Web(4Q3c) How long does it last?

1. Do you count the impulse that you fired it in? Where it has no effect, then the next 3 where it is in effect.

2. only when it is in effect. 4 impulses of it being working?

I would guess 1, but I'm not sure...

I don't like that they changed it to only four impulses though, it kinda defeats the purpose of slowing the enemy down, instead of dancing them away with Web Fists.

4 Impulses after solidification.

I wanted to voice my opinion about the changing of the rule, and fiqured this was a good place to do it. Next insult, please.

Hod got it completely correct: four impulses after it solidifies (for a total of five impulses).

The rule was changed for two reasons:
1) It was a mistake. It was always supposed to be 4 impulses, not 8. It is only supposed to last for half of a turn.
2) Leaving it at 8 impulses was heavily unbalancing. At 8 impulses, you could have a single web caster present and maintain a permanent wall.
Putting them together it was a mistake waiting for abuse. It needed to be fixed.
