Almost all spells, that didn't scale whatsoever, like buff and debuff spells, now scale with the new parameter called Magic Strength (MS). MS equals to Spellpower, but is also increased by all mage secondary skills and some specialties or artifacts. Moreover, all combat spells now gained a bonus effect that's unlocked by gaining Master rank at corresponding school of magic and most spells are further amplified by Grandmaster rank. To compensate for high values spells got mana costs got increased and starting effect got decreased.
Scalings. Every value here and in spells is rounded down.
Percentage: extra 3% per 10 MS.
Fire Shield: 2% per 10 MS.
Attack/Defence: 1 per 10 MS.
Damage: 1 per 33 MS.
Morale/Luck/Retals: 1 per 33 MS.
Haste/Prayer: 1 per 25 MS.
Summons: 1 per 20 MS.
