Testing
Testing Notes:
Domains give each spell of that element an additional damage dice.
Each 10 points of main stat for each spell effects the number of dice rolled (Example, Mind Bolt at level 1, never been used, went from 1d7 to 2d7 when going from 9 to 10 charisma)
Each level of the spell increases cast chance by 1% (or thereabouts)
Each other level (level 3, 5, etc) increases dice value (Example, above mind bolt went from 2d7 to 2d8 at spell level 3, with no increase to casting skill or stat)
For non-damage spells, spell level increases cast chance and duration.
Talismans
(All talisman information tested with Sword Sage, and the Talisman Mastery feat.)
Talismans "cast" the spell as if the player had used it themselves, at the same spell level, domain bonus and same stat bonus that the player would ordinarily have from traditional casting.
Talismans do not consume MP, and have a 100% chance to trigger if the weapon attack hits and the melee hit does not drop the target instantly to critical health.
Talisman damage is rolled after weapon damage.
Casting in this manner does not give the player casting or spell experience, and talisman stock is gained at 1/2 the base rate of reading the book, with no bonuses from memorization.
