Magic Guide Version 1.2
--------------------------------------
This guide is created to try and give you an idea of what magic does what and how effective they are. But please remember the game changes and is still in development, so this information can change. I will endeavor to keep this guide as up-to-date as I can.
Rating of spells:
0 = Virtually useless.
1 - 2 = Only really useful as training spells.
3 - 5 = Useful spells but limited use or mainly for beginners.
6 - 8 = Useful for all but with higher experience can become redundant.
9 - 10 = Very useful and/or powerful spells.
How Spell Realms Work
Realm 1: Can be cast at level one and above
Realm 2: Can only be cast at level 20 or higher
Realm 3: Can only be cast at level 30 or higher
Realm 4: Can only be cast at level 40 or higher
Realm 5: Can only be cast at level 80

SPELL PURIFICATION AND LEARNING
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step one: Open the spell book and click on the combine button to open up another big screenwith all your glyphs on it
Step two: Click on the spell and the drag it down to the purification button click on it and wait for a few mineuts till it says the spell is purified.
Step three-a: When the glyph is purified, place it in one of the 4 boxes at the bottom and press the reserch button it will bring up a description and you have finished your research.
Step three-b: Some spells need 2 or more glyphs to make so you must place all glyphs needed in the 4 boxes at the bottom and in the correct order (such as 'energy arrow' would be energy glyph then arrow glyph. Arrow glyph first, energy glyph second, would not make the same spell) and like single glyph spells hit research.
Step four: Click on the save spell button and you have learned a new spell if there is any magic within that glyph/glyphs.

Casting And Combat Casting
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Casting spells is easy. All you have to do is open up the spell book and select 'spell' then hit the cast button. Combat casting however is different and much more effective. Instead of stopping to cast by selecting the spell and clicking, you can setup a shortcut button with the /cast command in it. For example, create a shortcut with '/cast Energy Arrow' and then set it to a button in the shortcut menu. This will allow you to quickly and effortlessly activate it, and start to cast energy arrow. The /cast command can be used for other spells - just replace energy arrow with any other spell name.

What Game Says: This spell conjures a meteor or a lava rock, that appers in the sky and targets the victim.

hands or a weapon suffers 3+P damage.

The glyphs of this way give the wizard the ability to cast different protective spells, to summon natural creatures and some monsters and to influence their will.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BROWN WAY: Single Glyph Spells
Rock Armour

What Game Says: The casters body is coverd with plates of rock, That magical wiegh nothing and give no problem to movement.
the plates can absorb damage and protect the caster upto the spell duration. The caster gains a +15% to its defensive value.
What I Say: Spell takes a little above the average time to cast, lasts for a fair amount of time but is ultimately only really any good for training in the brown way.
Rating: 3
BROWN WAY: Combinations
Flying Stones
Realm: 2

What I Say: The spell is realm 2, but is under powered when compared to the likes of energy arrow, yet has a longer range.
Rating: 6

Its basically a sneaky and insidious energy, that can control the will and intentions of any intelligent being.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AZURE WAY: single spells
Defensive Wind
Realm: 1
What Game Says: The sorcerer some draws powerful gusts of wind around him/herself, so its harder to attack him/her with melee or missile weapons. This spell gives a 15% bonus on defensive value to the caster to any melee or long range attack against the mage.

Rating: 9
AZURE WAY: Combinations
Nature Intuition
Realm: 2
What game says: With this spell the wizard is able to determine the physical status of a creature (hp total and remaining hp) and its stats.
What I say: Does what it says on the tin. Can be used on NPCs, monsters, and other players. I see no use for it in combat as of yet but perhaps good for clearing up arguments and giving people some intel on a person before a challenge is issued. Casting also takes a bit of time for this spell.
Rating: 4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BLUE WAY
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------
Description Of Way
-----------------------------------
Focus: Divination
BLUE WAY: Single Spells, Purification, Water element
Stat: Will
Many diseases and poisons will be incurable without the help of the spells of this way. The offensive and defensive potential of this art, resides mainly on the control of the water element, but also cold and ice that are strictly related to it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Freeze

Rating: 5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DARK WAY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------
Description Of Way
------------------------------------
Focus: Entropy, Death and Darkness
Stat: Charisma
This way is one that conjures more myth than any of the others, Practitioners have a history of being the most inovitive of any practitioners of the ways of magic but with all innovation there is good and bad.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DARK WAY: Single Spells
Darkness
Realm: 1
What Game Says: The Caster can a globe of darkness and impairs vision. All creaters caught in the darkness area suffer a -30% to there attack value till they move away from it.
What I Say: Although used correctly is a powerful spell the time taken to cast it is long and you must be within touch range of target so it limits spells usefulness.
Rating: 6
Weakness
Realm: 1
What Game Says: The necromantic spell tries to destroy the inner energy of the chosen creature. A dark purple haze appears around the body of the victim which suffers P damages each 5 seconds. In addition the victim loses 10 points of strength for the duration of the spell.
What I Say: again a useful spell and works over a time period but again has to be used within touch range so has limited uses.
Rating: 5
Taste Of Death
Realm: 1
What game says: This dark and evil spell has the power to link for a few seconds the soul of a creature with the Death Realm. The experience is scary enough to cause a shock that delivers 5p damage.
What I say: This spell, although weak, is the first long ranged spell for the Dark Way, yet its casting speed - like most others - cowers in comparison to energy arrow. Could be expensive to cast over and over and is overpowered by a lot of other spells however good if you're RPing a dark lord or something else like such.
Rating:3

**************************************************
NEW UNCONFIRMED MAGIC SYSTEM
**************************************************
Its seams as though there is a new system that only allows you to research spells when you have the correct realm for them i.e if you're not at level 80 you will not be able to research the healing wave spell. For example energy arrow is a realm 2 spell so you will not be able to research the combination until Crystal Way level 20 or above, or meteor realm 3 until you are level 30 or above. This exists with all Ways and all glyphs - to research the spell you must have the realm requirement in that way.
