I think we are talking about the same thing with the locus in the field vs. golf course. However, I'm not sure what you mean by Locus near the hideout? If you mean by the cannery/factory/Uratha's territory; it's health. The presence of the Uratha if anything has made it better than when they first arrived. Sorry for the delay
EDIT: I'm going to keep things moving with the assumption the Uratha don't succeed or do anything dramatic on the roll.
Ok, can king sky hunter use the health locus near the hideout, or would he benefit from Blaze adjusting the essence type?
