Sorry to bother but I'm curious, how come scrolls here Example; Flamestrike scroll does more damage than a spell casted from regs. I thought it used to be the scrolls did less damage, and took less mana, but were a lot faster..

And also will wands become a big part of your changes?

I must have explained badly, FS scrolls damage is boosted (but still lower than the book spell) - both book and scroll will have some AR dependent damage element as well. The scroll will still be faster and take less mana (but more than it currently does).

As for wands, no, I have not touched them. I don't really like them personally and would happily nuke them away but that's personal feelings and I try not to let them get in the way of my changes.

I don't want to give out values for spells etc. because I know from past experiences players latch on to numbers and argue about them without necessarily having solid justification - also because knowing the numbers spoils the game I think. But I have taken a very calculated mathematical approach to the damage, speed and mana values given to all the spells/weapons/other stuff I've changed.

So far I haven't had much in the way of detailed feedback from the testers but those who have given me feedback have liked the system, so I'm hoping when we set up the area on the live server others will feel the same.
