Spell Values on Home Page (in General)

Why is Dispel Magic listed as:

Dispel magic Value X (Something less than X)

No armor penalties etc. What do the 2 values mean?

(Something less than X) is the actual effective value. This value (appears) to be a fixed percentage of the trained value.

More info wouldn't hurt here..

X = the number of points you have trained into it (not xp trained but number of times you have increased it one point)

Something less than X = Effect (dispel will cast for this during battles)

If you have DM and say... AS trained to the same amount, DM doesn't knock out all the AS. Only a %. I think it's 80%.

In the case of:

# (#)

The first # is the actual level of the Spell. (#) in the other hand is the effective level of the spell. This number is not generated in any complex manor, it is always 80% of the first #. The effective level is the level that gets subtracted from the spells DM affects.

In the case of:

#/# (#)

The second # is the actual level of the spell. The first # is the level after penalties and bonuses from armor. And once again (#) is the effective level which will be 80% of the first #.

You can take my DM as an example:

Dispel Magic: 175,628/154,060 (140,502)

The 175,628 is the adjusted level, that is after all item bonuses and minuses are included like a Corn or armor

The 154,060 is the trained level that I obtained via using xp.

The 140,502 is the effective level that is used in battle to decrease others spells. It is 80% of the adjusted level not the trained level. That is 140,052 levels are taken away from others AS, GA, VA, Haste, GS, or protection.

Hope that example helps.

If you have no armor bonuses or minuses the adjusted level will be the same as the trained level so you will only see 2 values.

xxxx (yyyy)

xxxx being the trained and adjusted level
yyyy being the effective level.

Thanks for the explanation :)

Now a follup-up question:
Here's my FB spell on the home page:

Fireball: 129,043/116,255 (20,492)

The 129k is adjusted. The 116k is trained. But what the heck is the 20k in parentheses? My FB does way more damage than 20k.

I believe the (20,492) is the damage it does per minion at full spread (5 minions). But I could be wrong.

Vestax is correct the value in () is the value of damage to 5 minions.

The value in () for MM is the damage to single minion.
