Magic

Skill - Magic
Magic is a combat skill that is used to cast spells, and using the power of runes. It is a very versatile skill, offering many benifets to players with high magic levels. In combat, Magic users, or "mages" can damge their opponents from a distance, freezing them in place, lowering their combat stats, and even hitting multiple targets at once. Other than combat, magic allows players to do various tasks such as enchanting items, casting "alchemy" and even curing or healing others with lunar magic. In g0dScape, the combat triangle states that mages are strong toward warriors, and weak toward rangers. All runes can be bought from "Zaff" by the bank, and magic armour from the gnome southwest of the bank.

In the Magic, there are three different types of "spellbooks" available to g0dScape players: the standard spellbook, Ancient Magicks spellbook, and the Lunar Magicks spellbook. There are also four different types of spells you can cast including Combat spells, Curse spells, Alchemy spells, and Other spells. In the current version of g0dScape (version 3) teleporting is only used when teleporting home - it is not a big factor for magic, therefore not included in this article.

Combat spells are meant to be used in combat of course, to damage another opponent. The damages of your combat spell are ussually determined by what spell you are casting, from air strike to Ice barrage! For each spell, the determination of damage in g0dScape is as follows : Curse spells are the spells from the standard and Acient Magicks spellbooks that can drain the target's Attack, Strength, or Defence by a certain ammount. In g0dScape the drains are not cumalative; meaning you will not be able to "stack" the damage from curses. All curse spells use body runes, for lower level curses, or soul runes for higher leveled curses.

Alchemy spells are not used much in g0dScape because of the many faster ways of training magic and earning money. Alchemy is the process of turning items into gold Coins!

Many spells that are very unique are located in the Lunar spellbook. Although not used much in g0dScape version 3, g0d01w4r99 has "hinted" a chance for some uses in upcoming minigames. Some lunar spells include: Note that Lunar Magic is still very glitchy and does not have many uses in the current version of g0dScape.
