Spellcasting

All magic users in Might and Magic Tribute start with the generic skill of spellcasting. Students know this skill at the lowest level when the game begins. Explorers get the chance to learn it later, except when they choose to become a knight, but won't be able to master the skill beyond the rank of expert.

Description

Spellcasting is the basic ability to cast spells. Simple damaging spells, healing, illumination and protection are included. Some of the spells increase in effectiveness with higher spellcasting levels, others with knowledge and higher rank in the various schools of magic and the Identify Monster skill.

Expert rank in spellcasting must be achieved before a player character can learn any other magic skill.
