Spell Level

Spell Level indicates a mage's skill level in handling magic. Spell Level is acquired by learning new spells and is usually the primary factor in determining the strength of a mage's spells. It is advisable to research all available spells early after the creation of a mage in order to utilize high Spell Level.

Basics

  • The number of spells in your spell book (and their difficulty levels) determine your actual SL.
    • i.e. research spells to increase your spell level.
  • Apprentice server not having Ultimate Spells is compensated with +100 SL
    • Mages start at SL 105 to 106 on Apprentice server, at 5 to 6 on other servers.
  • Favour or Disfavour from Magic can affect Spell Level.
  • All or part of some Spells' effects are constant regardless of the caster's Spell Level.
  • A change in spell level does not affect enchantments that were already cast and still in effect, i.e. the strength of the enchantment remains unchanged.
    • e.g. if you cast Plant Growth with +20 spell level because of Magic's favor, it keeps in effect as long as you maintain the upkeep, usually days longer than the god favour lasts.


Standard Spell Levels

These are the spell levels for fully researched mages of the five specialities.

This list applies to all servers, because on Apprentice there is a +100 SL bonus to compensate for not having Ultimate spells (since November 2006).

  • By acquiring ancient spells and opposite color complex spells (Black Market), mages can further increase their spell level.
    • The max possible base Spell Level is 664.
    • With Magic Most Favored and maximum Grand Enchanter, one can cast enchantments at Spell Level 804.
  • Gods cast spells at spell level 777
