So, with testing, you will need healing, either in the form of magery/anatomy, or SS, or healing/anat, because the beneficial system is not yet written. You can also try using some of the Magery summons, taming or barding as a methods for keeping mobs off you while waiting on vahanomancy to be written. @here

Its probably not going to be much value in testing evocation at 60, as there are isn't a lot of value to the skill at that level UNLESS its being paired with barding or taming.

@here We will be starting testing very soon today. Again, I want to make it clear that Evocation is not a jack-of-all-trade skill like magery and it is intended to be paired with a complete build that makes use of other "keep away" tactics such as taming or barding. You can certainly make use of magery summons as a place holder for vahonomancy, or magery heals as a place holder for druidry. However for accurate testing, do not use magery direct damage spells while testing the feel of the system.
So what is it we need to know?
1) Your build
2) What you hunted and how successful or unsuccessful that was, and why you think it worked or didn't work.
3) How did it feel in comparison to ... what ever you compare it too in your head.

5.5) Important: STRIP ALL YOUR ITEMS AND CLOTHES INTO THE BANK or the gmbody will eat them.
6) Type .gmbody this will give you a full mage spell book, and a player/staff crystal ball toggle for testing.
7) Set your skills with .setallskills 100 then set yourself to player.
8) Then set your .spec and save, this will set your skills to max of your specs once you save. Check this!
9) Use your own equipment or buy from the vendors, make gold if you need it.
10) Add the book with .add bookofevocation then .allspells and target the book.

Don't play around testing with anything other then what you can get on production now. It won't help us and it will skew your perception.

Can we get a benny for having activated camping? Or even a cool down "regen" for having it passively?

Or maybe better to just lower the cool downs on the spells at the upper end, 130sec feels really long
Maybe 45, 60, 75 for the last three?   DONE


Everything feels good, don't forget to:
Adjust for mana DONE
Find out what the first spell isn't scaling very much. DONE
Adjust for AOE. DONE
Pacifiying to wither. DONE
Check Resist to make sure its working how we want DONE
Add a 1 sec cast time to slow down the process and increase chances for interupptions DONE

Check all the spells to work for PvP

Wither Trap and Magical Malaise need their durations reviewed, 3 seconds seems pretty short for the cool downs. - DONE
