Magery

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%*
• Magery itself does affect spell damage, in that spells do (Magery / 100) % damage. I.e. if you only have 50 magery, you'll always do only 50% of possible spell damage.
• Eval Int adds damage bonuses to your spell damage roll.

• Spells cast by creatures against players or players against creatures have a 10% chance to be Charged

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)

• Afterwards, a 5 second window starts where all subsequent 1st circle hostile spells against the target have a 25% interrupt chance
