Couple quick questions...

SDI for mages...

Now, was the cap for SDI for magery bumped up, or the damage spells do overall bumped up?

And Inscription gives what kind of a bonus?

Also, is there a higher SDI bonus for 120 scribe?

Certain damage spells such as flamestrike have been bumped up to justify the mana cost. There are also a few more spells we will take a look at later on to judge the mana cost VS damage ratio.

As for inscription, an SDI bonus was deemed appropriate for getting 120 scribe. I believe we increased it to 15 or 20% at 120 scribe to give scribe mages incentive to scroll up, besides making pretty spellbooks. Red can tell you more accurate values though as they were changes he applied.

I noticed you guys made corpse skin drop fire and poison to 55 no matter what. Does that still last the same length of time it normally would?

Yeah but it can be removed with remove curse. Basically it works like curse spell now, which basically ignores extra resist points when calculating. Before it was useless in pvp since almost everyone has extra anyway so it did nothing.

For those who don't have remove curse, remember that lovely skill "resist spells"? That will help reduce the duration. Also remove curse talismans will work nicely (And enchanted apples that remove curses when they are introduced in the game). So there's more than 1 method available to counter it.
