=== Essentials: Runes, Wizards, and Guilds === | === Essentials: Runes, Wizards, and Guilds === | ||
| − | Spells require [[Runes]], [[Units# | + | Spells require [[Runes]], [[Units#Units|Wizards]], and [[Buildings#Guilds|Guilds]] to be cast. [[Buildings#Towers|Towers]] produce runes every hour, which are consumed with each spell. Wizards are naturally trained by your Guilds. Like all of the other individuals across your lands, they come from your [[Units#Units|peasantry]] and reduce your number of available [[Economy#Peasants|workers]]. Be careful not to hold too many Wizards or you may be sacrificing your peasantry, [[Units#Units|Thieves]], or [[Military|Military]]. At any time, you can release Wizards back into the peasantry or simply shut down additional training. Your Wizards maintain a Mana level which determines whether or not they can cast Spells. This rating rises automatically each day and drops each time you cast a Spell. Your Wizards will not cast Spells without at least a 5% Mana level. Casting Spells is not without risks. Failed attempts can result in explosions and kill a small portion of your Wizards. |

=== Determining Success === | === Determining Success === | ||
| − | To cast a spell, you must have | + | To cast a spell, you must have [[Growth#Guilds|Guilds]], wizards and mystic [[Runes]]. For spells cast upon yourself, success is based on your Guild percentage and your Building Efficiency - the more guilds you have, the better you will do. For spells cast upon others, the success is based on your relative wizard population, measured as [[Wizards Per Acre]] (WPA), modified by the racial bonuses or penalties and your knowledge of Channeling science. The higher your WPA compared to an enemy, the better your success. However, there is always a great deal of chance in every spell. Furthermore, the duration of all spells is greatly impacted by your Guild percentage. |
| + | |||
| + | For support spells, the formula used to calculate success rate is adjusted to make casting self spells on your allies easier. A WPA vs WPA calculation will still be made which will require the caster to have WPA but the formula will make it so that all Kingdom members have an opportunity to receive the self spell bonuses from their support caster. In other words, although you still need WPA it won't be a very significant part of the formula. | ||

Essentials: Runes, Wizards, and Guilds
Spells require Runes, Wizards, and Guilds to be cast. Towers produce runes every hour, which are consumed with each spell. Wizards are naturally trained by your Guilds. Like all of the other individuals across your lands, they come from your peasantry and reduce your number of available workers. Be careful not to hold too many Wizards or you may be sacrificing your peasantry, Thieves, or Military. At any time, you can release Wizards back into the peasantry or simply shut down additional training. Your Wizards maintain a Mana level which determines whether or not they can cast Spells. This rating rises automatically each day and drops each time you cast a Spell. Your Wizards will not cast Spells without at least a 5% Mana level. Casting Spells is not without risks. Failed attempts can result in explosions and kill a small portion of your Wizards.
Rune Generation
Runes Generated = (( Towers * 12 * Race Land Effect Mod * Personality Land Effect Mod * Building Efficiency ) + ( Land * Land Rune Generation )) * Production Science * Honor Mod * Ritual Mod * Stance Mod
- Each tick, 1.2% of the total Runes in storage will decay.
Determining Success
To cast a spell, you must have Guilds, wizards and mystic Runes. For spells cast upon yourself, success is based on your Guild percentage and your Building Efficiency - the more guilds you have, the better you will do. For spells cast upon others, the success is based on your relative wizard population, measured as Wizards Per Acre (WPA), modified by the racial bonuses or penalties and your knowledge of Channeling science. The higher your WPA compared to an enemy, the better your success. However, there is always a great deal of chance in every spell. Furthermore, the duration of all spells is greatly impacted by your Guild percentage.
For support spells, the formula used to calculate success rate is adjusted to make casting self spells on your allies easier. A WPA vs WPA calculation will still be made which will require the caster to have WPA but the formula will make it so that all Kingdom members have an opportunity to receive the self spell bonuses from their support caster. In other words, although you still need WPA it won't be a very significant part of the formula.
Duration of Spells
The duration of successful spells is affected by:
- The nominal duration of that particular spell, which differs for each spell.
- The percentage of guilds the casting province has, with no additional effect for amounts over 20%.
- The relative networth of the two provinces.
- The current relations between the two provinces' kingdoms.
Additionally, there is an element of randomness.
One quarter of the nominal duration of a spell is always contributed to the final cast time. A scaling factor made up of the % guilds, relative net worth and current relations then governs the contribution of another quarter of the nominal duration. Finally, the remaining half of the nominal duration is contributed to the final cast time, scaled by both the scaling factor and a random number.
For example, given a spell with a nominal duration of 24 days:
- with a scaling factor of 100% (meaning both provinces have the same net worth, are in war, and the caster has 20% or more guilds), the final cast time will be in the range of 12-24 days.
- in a situation with a scaling factor of 0% (e.g., the cast has no guilds), the final cast time will be 6 days (25% of 24 days).
- in a situation with a scaling factor of 50%, the final cast time will be 6 days (25% of 24 days) + 3 days (25% of 24 days multiplied by scaling factor of 50%) + 0-6 days (random number out of 50% of 24 days multiplied by scaling factor of 50%), which equals 9 - 15 days in total.
Cost of Spells
All spells cost mana, which the province will regenerate each Utopian day up to a maximum of 100%. Once your mana falls below 5% you are unable to cast any more spells until your mana regenerates.
The costs of spells are:
- Self Spells - 3%
- Offensive Spells (without relations) - 3%
- Offensive Spells (Hostile relations) - 2%
- Ritual Spells - 2%
- Support Spells on others - 2%
- Successful received Support Spells - 2%
Restriction & Limits
Certain spells are designated Unfriendly, Hostile or War Only spells -- Because of the destructive nature of these spells, they can be cast only against provinces which have at least a certain level of relations with your kingdom. In addition, you will find that many of these spells are more effective during heightened relations conditions.
Spells are divided into two categories, as listed below:
- Self Spells
- Some Self Spells can be cast on kingdom members by certain Races. These spells are known as Support Spells. Success is based on the caster's WPA and relative networth to the target, and the duration of these spells is based on target's guilds. The list can be found here.
- The caster gains honor from kd mates whom they cast support spells on. Those getting cast on lose honor when having a support spell casted on them, ~0.1%.
- Offensive spells
There are 3 possible outcomes of casting a spell. It can be successful, it can fail, or it can fail and some wizards may die.
- Successful message: Your wizards gather their runes and begin casting. The spell consumes X Runes and ... is successful!
- Fail message: Your wizards gather their runes and begin casting. The spell consumes X Runes and ... fizzles. Alas, we were not able to fulfill your expectations. Please forgive us.
- Dying wizards message: "Leader name", something has gone terribly wrong with our spell. X of our wizards were killed in an explosion!
Please note that Duration is in real time, spell messages are in Utopia Time
The Spell Book: Self Spells
Listed here is a short reference guide to each of the spells available that can be cast on yourself. Any restrictions on use will be listed under the name. The max cast shown does not include any racial bonuses. Almost all the spells that provide bonuses for certain activities (like speeding up building construction etc.) need to be cast before the activity is initiated / ordered to reap the benefits of the spell.

Animate Dead

Anonymity
War is at the heart of the world of Utopia, but the fear of retaliation makes many leaders cringe. This spell casts an aura of mystery around your army.

Is Known: Age 13 ... now

Mystic Advisor Message: Our armies are surrounded by a cloud of anonymity for our next battle.
