Training

• Resisting Spells can be trained in one of two ways; By casting on yourself or Getting cast on by mobs
  • Casting on yourself is much slower then being cast upon by mobs, but can be macroed AFK.
  • Note for option 1: Spells must either be cast by yourself (on yourself) or by a friendly Player (same guild / alliance), the skill wont gain otherwise.

• Skill Gain chance is much higher if the spell is cast by a creature
• There is a limit on how much skill you can gain per mob. If you stop gaining, kill the mobs and continue with fresh ones
