OH
HERE is the "Spells" page (Wonderfully called "Mystics").
in your defense, the tab group /is/ labeled mystics.
Nvm on that... But this is cool.
- yes, this is named the same as the old guide and the page it links from in-game --Bishop 11:04, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
Edited page after I got this: Our lands have been blessed by nature for 38 days, and will be protected from drought and storms.
- the max cast shown does not include any racial bonuses --Bishop 10:03, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
Spell durations!
How does spell duration really work?
Elf/Mystic 17.5% guilds! Does this mean i have twice as efficient guilds, so that would qualify me for >20% guilds and possibly max duration! NW difference. 7% larger opponent! >5 Raw WPA >80% sci! Mod WPA >11
We are in Hostile!
-- Copied from text -- 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 multipled 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.
-- End Copy --
Cast duration 6 hours - this means?
7% difference and Hostile would equal to casting with 0 guilds?
It also gives less duration than 50% scaling which is 9-15 hours.
What is the leading modifier here, but there is something wrong here.
I have been assuming 24 hours duration, which is wrong ofcourse. Guide says 8 here http://wiki.utopia-game.com/index.php/Magic_Formulas but htat is to low. What is the max duration for MS ?

Bahh
This is annoying...
I'm updating WoL_Personalities with the clarifications... but I can't find ANYTHING that explains what a duration spell is and what an instant spell is. Well, aside from [[1]] but that doesn't actually SAY what it is...
But none-the-less... it's a trail and it's rather hard to... fix.
Like Nightmares and Amnesia. These are NOT duration spells, but they have a duration component. And Instant Spells, how do you define these other than not having a duration? Thats not to mention to confusing issue of Lasting Spells...
UGGG!!!
