Yeah, it makes things abit more difficult to run properly. However, the payoff (far larger number of evocations spammed) is definitely worth it.

It just requires clever scripting, and alternation using several masters (i.e. 4 masters stagger-casting Reinvigoration with one slave each (the first one casting reinvig can cast Sabbath Master instead to get the fatigue), or 2 double casting reinvigoration at staggered intervals, with a highish fatigue spell in between).

Yes...and as LL said, make sure they are casting high fatigue spells...or else you may suddenly find some imps fighting on your side!!
