[quote="FLICKTHEBEAN"]Iron Fist claims to be Power:32 Level 4 LightSword claim to be Power:22 However on F10 screen it's showing 15MA difference, not 10 :o Is this a bug, or can someone explain it to me, please.[/quote]

[quote="S0RCERER"]Staff skill grants a larger MA bonus to spells with higher power, the higher your staff skill, the larger the gap will become. Same as how it works with melee weapons and melee weapon skills.[/quote]

[quote="FLICKTHEBEAN"]Ah, so even if i'm not wearing the staff, the skill effects MA?[/quote]

[quote="S0RCERER"]What are you seeing without a staff equipped?[/quote]

[quote="FLICKTHEBEAN"]As first post, i was wearing no kit, I have 97int and 100white skill - Level 4 lightsword was showing 130-130MA, Iron fist was showing 145-145MA.[/quote]

Will check when I'm home. Would be nice if you could also if you could, cast them on a dummy to see if your F10 matches the damage you actually do.[/quote]

[quote="S0RCERER"]Can conclude that 1 PWR =/ 1 MA (REAL MA - 107) / Power Light Arrow 1.3 Light Sword 1.4 Energy Bolt 1.4 Iron Fist 1.5 Fireball -3.9 - DAMAGE CAPPED Ice Storm 1.5 Frost Wind 1.5 Dragon's Breath 1.5 What I find most confusing is how an increase in Spell Power doesn't grant the same REAL MA with each spell. Light Arrow to Light Sword gains 13 REALM MA (8 power) 1 PWR = 1.62 MA Light Sword to Energy Bolt gains 3 REAL MA (2 power) 1 PWR = 1.5 MA Energy Bolt to Iron Fist gains 7 REAL MA (4 power) 1 PWR = 1.75 MA Ice Storm to Frost Wind gains 3 REAL MA (2 power) 1 PWR = 1.5 MA Frost Wind to Iron Fist gains 3 REAL MA (2 power) 1 PWR = 1.5 MA Iron Fist to Dragon's Breath gains 7 REAL MA (4 power) 1 PWR 1.75 MA Yeah, magic attack is worked out in such a weird way... Can't find a definitive answer to the why the F10 magic attack differs from REAL MA(The damage you deal) and the Power of a spell + INT.[/quote]
