Ok is magic working properly?

[Xeropace]

My friend has 4 in lightning and fire, yet 10 MP
I had 20 MP at 2 fire...

I now have 5 lightning and 5 fire, still have 20MP and the "Spell Casting" skill is level 2. I cannot learn any new spells


Also mana, takes forever to recharge, and sometimes 20 mana still isn't enough to kill something.

How about we add a "Prayer" position to the V menu to regen MP?

 

[Vomica7]

umm how would a prayer raise MP? (if that was added it should raise HP too)
how about something called focus or concentration :roll:
or like.... POWER UP!!!!!

You Magic Level is apparently based off all the magic skills, due to the fact you only can get 2 types of magic at the start, training this skill takes forever.

Mp is apparently based off wisdom, i believe parry can also increase this.

I've also been told that learning new spells if based off concentration, which can also be increased through the bow skills.

As far as i know the best way to level up magic is to either buy about 20 mana potions or jump in a pit when you out of mana, youll respawn with full mana. Also try leveling up with skeletons using a different skill each time, every time you kill them you gain experiance for every weapon youve previously killed them with.

 

[Xeropace]

So the ones that get back up you still get previous weapons exp? Nice.

Also I got summon But wait...It doesn't skill up? I tried letting the rats kill something but no avail...

 

[AmIAnnoyingNow]

Summoning, as far as i know, does not gain experiance.

 

[Vomica7]

omg i never knew there was summoning...
PIX!!! GIMME!!!
and how does it work? if infact it does

 

[Xeropace]

You charge the spell. Aim and click to make a Rat appear on the spot. The Rat freelances around attacking what ever it wants.

Best part is, they give EXP when killed

where to buy summoning magic

 

[Xeropace]

I beleive I brought it in Helena.

 

[Vomica7]

omfg
can you spawn other monsters? !!!!!!!!!!!!
and where DO you get that lovely skill?

 

[Xeropace]

No just rats. Alough I have Summon Undead, but I can't learn it yet

What you have to do is level magic until you're level 3 spell casting, then learn summon

I just want to say magic is working properly, it just needs to be tuned up. I have a list of suggestions for Kuroneko to make it better. Please try to hold all magic gameplay related questions until after a patch is made.

On a note about the erratic lightening damage, the base damage is fine. What happens is the damage dealt is 1% to 200% of that base value, hence why it's erratic.

I should also add, to all our potential Harry Potters, that being a pure mage, really, isn't an option in MS : C atm. You need to diversify.

Concentration and Wisdom, that seem to raise Mana levels and are required to learn spells, can't be raised much by practicing magic alone. It maybe your total level has to be higher before they will raise, or that other skills also raise these as well (I notice raising Archery seems to raise Concentration, at least with my fairly well rounded char).

Also it seems while Concentration helps spells fizzel less, armor helps them fizzle more. Though maybe my imagination - I think the devs did say something along these lines.

[dRkILL]

The concentration being raised by other weapons is being addressed.

 

[Thothie]

That's a bug? Might not want to fix that, as raising it through magic seems neigh impossible..

I got a regular on my server with Fire and 14, and Lightning at 12... He has almost no other skills, and his Concentration is a wopping 4.

My Concentration is 7, and I've no magic skill past 4 (fire/lightning both 4).

Anyone want to give me a spoiler on how much Con is needed to memorize Ice Sheild?

PS. Level titles for mages would also be nice.

OMG TITLE LIST!
the wiki is your friend. me loves wiki

anyways... as far as i can tell, concentraion play no part in spell memorization. my concentration was around 13 when my spell casting was four. i FINNALY got it up to five, and was able to learn ice sheild and regeneration right afterwards. 8) its sweeet, but doesnt last long =\

for some reason i was never able to increase concentration until i sumhow learned parry, i played all day and didnt get any parry, but then 1 monster gave me from 1 to 3 and i gained con and wisdom dunno why!

 

[Crow]

hey... that happened to me too. i waited FOREVER and suddenely it was like every minute id get wisdom or parry. my parry is like 17 and i have 90 mana 0.0

I saw that wiki list, but I guess it isn't implemented yet.

The aformentioned mage regular on my server, with his 14 Fire and 12 lightning, was titled "Adventurer".

[Skillasaur]

if parry raises wisdom then surely you would have to be hit to gain mana?

imo surely one thing a mage wouldnt like to do is get hit alot? tbh with xero training in small arms and me training in axe + sword weapons and both starting magic at the same time he has max 40 mana when i have 20 and ~same skills in magic.

is this a bug or?

 

[Xeropace]

Yeah me and Skilla been playing alot. Same level of magic and I have double MP...

By the way, Summon Rat owns! You can make a wall of rats and the monster will attack them whilst you rest.

 

[dookehster]

Also, how do u lv up summoning? It never seems to want to go up.

 

[AmIAnnoyingNow]

I think Ice shield and rejuvinate require 10 concentration (Or whatever i have now). And rejuvinate is totally worth it.

 

[darkdain]

i only had 7 when i learned ice shield, i dont know if it works but it doesnt go up, and where do you buy rejuvination?

It's implemented in. I saw a Shadow Weaver just yesterday. It's not your specific lightning or fire its your "Spell Casting" so...
