Line 1: Line 1:
Casting a spell costs [[Magicka]]; the exact cost depends on the spell's cost and the player's skill. For custom player-made spells as well as Auto-Calculated spells made in the CS, the formula is
#REDIRECT [[:Category:Spell Cost]]
(BaseCost * fMagicDurMagBaseCostMult) * (Magnitude ^ fMagicCostScale) * (Duration) * (Area * fMagicAreaBaseCostMult)
Where "BaseCost" is defined in the Magic Effect settings in the CS, and Magnitude, Duration, and Area are the parameters of the spell. If any of the parenthetical pieces of the formula is less than 1, 1 is used instead.
 
The [[Category:Settings|game settings]] fMagicDurMagBaseCostMult, fMagicCostScale, and fMagicAreaBaseCostMult have default values of 0.1, 1.28, 0.15, respectively.
