Evaluating Intelligence

Summary

• Evaluating Intelligence is used for its ability to increase the damage and effectiveness of Magery spells
• When you cast a spell, the potential damage is calculated based on several factors, such as the spell, its circle, your ability, etc.
  • The damage then gets scaled based on the mage’s Evaluate Intelligence

PvM Bonus

• Modifies base spell damage against creatures by (0.75 + (0.5 * (Eval/100)))
  • 100 Eval Int provides 25% Spell Damage Increase, while 0 Eval Int provides -25% Damage Increase

PvP Bonus

• Modifies base spell damage against players by (0.75 + (0.375 * (Eval/100)))
• There is a 10% spell damage cap on supplemental skills (Tracking, Camping, Inscription, etc)
  • This cap does not consider what your Evaluating Intelligence skill is at, therefore if you have 0 skill in Evaluating Intelligence, you cannot gain 20% spell damage by using Tracking and Camping together
  • However, you could have 100 Evaluating Intelligence and 100 Tracking and gain 22.5% spell damage increase

Training

• Up to 50.0 skill can be trained by a NPC mage or scribe vendor
• Skill gains for Evaluating Intelligence up to 70.0 are accelerated in the New Player Dungeon
• Evaluating Intelligence gains passively when the player uses Magery
• While Evaluating Intelligence can be trained through active use this is the slower method
