This skill will reduce the magic power needed to cast all spells, similar to the hero ability Spell Lore. The most powerful Spell Masters can reduce the number of turns needed as well.

Effects

  • Each level: Reduces base spell casting cost by 1% for on-colour, 2% for near-colour, 3% for opposites.
  • Level 20 bonus: Additionally, all spells cost one turn less to cast (minimum one turn).


** Note the base spell casting cost of spells on near-colours and off-colours. As a reminder:

Guild server May 20, 2010 - Spell Mastery: Reduces turn cost by a percentage

At L12, Spells with an original cast time of over 8 turns cost 1 turn less e.g. Summon Leviathan becomes 8 turns, Call Lightning becomes 9 turns.

Solo server Nov 26, 2010 - Spell Mastery: Reduces turn cost by a percentage *UPDATE by slivers7*

As a Nether mage, at Spell Mastery L4, the number of turns needed to cast the spell "Black Death" was noticed to go from 25 turns to 24 turns, so from cursory observation, it appears each level gained reduces the number of turns needed to cast any spell in a linear fashion as below:


Turns needed to cast a spell * (100 - Spell Mastery Level)% ; turns needed rounded up, so the minimum will at least be 1 turn for non-battle spells

  • => -1% turn(s) needed to cast any spell per level of skill, fractions rounded up


In the example case, it would have been:

25 turns needed * (100 - 4)% = 25 turns * 96% = 24 turns needed ; exact

  • Currently, insufficient tested info for each skill level. Needs verification from players who have maxed Spell Mastery.

Example

  • Example: Casting Shroud Of Darkness (Average,10000MP) by a L20 Spell Master...
    • Icon NETHER.gif Nether: 100% - 20% = 80% = 8,000MP
    • Icon ERADICATION.gif Eradication: 150% - 40%*150% = 150% - 60% = 90% = 9,000MP
    • Icon ASCENDANT.gif Ascendant: 350% - 60%*350% = 350% - 210% = 140% = 14,000MP
      • This clearly shows that this skill is most useful for colours who want to have opposite units!
  • Example of Spell Mastery in combination with Spell Lore hero ability or Magic's Favour.
    • The effects stack on top of eachother as a multiplication, not as an addition.
    • E.g. -10% Spell Mastery effect (skill lvl 10, on color) AND -6% Spell Lore effect (hero lvl 4)
    • Casting Icon PHANTASM.gif Wish (normally 100,000 m.p.) in this situation will cost 84,600 m.p. and not 84,000 m.p.
      • In formula: it combines as (1-6%)*(1-10%)=0.90*0.94=0.846=(1-15.4%)
      • (-10) AND (-6) = 15.4%
