Summary

Magery is perhaps the most versatile skill available. Players can use it to travel the world, summon beings to do your bidding, attack monsters (and other players) and even create food. Spells require Reagents to cast, which can be bought from Mage Shops, Vendors, or found as loot.


Detailed Info

  • Magery Minimum skill needed to cast spell is Spell Circle * 10
  • Skill needed to cast spell with 100% success chance (no fizzling) is Minimum Skill Required + 20
  • Exception is First Circle Spells, which require 0 Minimum skill and at 30 Magery have a 100% success rate
  • Casting a spell from a scroll increases a player's effective Magery skill by 20
  • Players can gain Magery skill by casting any spell that meet the minimum Magery requirement for but that they have a less than 100% chance of success on casting
  • Default casting time is (0.5 + (0.25 * (Circle - 1)) seconds
  • Certain spells (Recall, Gate, Resurrection, Summons, Earthquake) have unique casting times
  • Casting recovery time is 0.2 seconds
  • Spell damage against creatures is increased by 100%
  • Base spell damage is scaled by (Magery / 100%), so a player with only 50 Magery will only do 50% of the maximum possible damage from a spell
  • Eval Int adds damage bonuses to your spell damage roll


Charged Spells

  • Spells cast by creatures against players or players against creatures have a 10% chance to be Charged
  • Charged spells deal an additional 50% to the target


Heat of Battle

  • When a player is in the Heat of Battle they are unable to cast Recall, Gate, or use any Moongates.


Poisoning

  • Creatures cannot resist casted Poison from players
  • Players have a (20% * (Poisoning Skill / 100)) chance to upgrade Spell Poison onto creatures to Lethal Poison
  • In order to be able to upgrade to Lethal poison, the player must have a Lethal Poison potion in their backpack (if they do not have, they cannot upgrade to Lethal Poison)
  • On a successful Lethal Poison upgrade cast, there is a 20% chance a Lethal Poison potion in their backpack will be consumed (and players will be notified)
  • When players cast the Poison spell against another player, the maximum poison upgrade level is now capped based on the distance to the target player as follows:
    • Lethal Poison: Must be within 0-4 Tiles of target player
    • Deadly Poison: Must be within 0-8 Tiles of target player


Spell Interrupts

  • All hostile spells from 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th circles will interrupt other players 100% of the time
  • Players casting onto themselves will always interrupt themselves regardless of spell circle and will never initiate a "window" nor will reset an active one
  • Each circle "window" is independent of each other (i.e. there is a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd circle window)


1st Circle Spells

  • Casting a hostile 1st circle spell against another player will at first have an interrupt chance of 100%
  • Afterwards, a 5 second window starts where all subsequent 1st circle hostile spells against the target have a 25% interrupt chance
  • If the player is hit with another 1st circle spell before 5 seconds have passed, the spell window resets to 5 seconds


2nd Circle Spells

  • Casting a hostile 2nd circle spell against another player will at first have an interrupt chance of 100%
  • Afterwards, a 5 second window starts where all subsequent 2nd circle hostile spells against the target have a 50% interrupt chance
  • If the player is hit with another 2nd circle spell before 5 seconds have passed, the spell window resets to 5 seconds


Circle Spells

  • Casting a hostile 3rd circle spell against another player will at first have an interrupt chance of 100%
  • Afterwards, a 5 second window starts where all subsequent 3rd circle hostile spells against the target have a 75% interrupt chance
  • If the player is hit with another 3rd circle spell before 5 seconds have passed, the spell window resets to 5 seconds
