General

Virtually all players train at least once school of magic and it isn't uncommon for nonmages to have two or even three schools trained. Spells are learned via Scrolls or as rewards for Quests. Scrolls can be found as loot on most Creatures, can be purchased from Scriveners, and in most chests, particularly Steel Chests.

Casting spells requires a Casting Device and Spell Components. To use the new component system of Prismatic Tapers and scarabs, you must have a Foci for that school. With the release of Gears of Change, you can remove the need for a Foci using the new system with the proper Augmentation Gems.

BUYING SPELLS

Spells can be bought through any of the spell vendors in all of the newbie towns or in Arwic from the Spell Vendors by School of Magic needed. Here is the costs of buying by the Level and by School:
