MAGIC.SPO, version 3.0.5, for Angband 3.0.5 (all systems)
Release Date     : June 3, 2005
Author           : Hugo Kornelis (angband@hugo.isdit.com)

Based on previous versions of MAGIC.SPO, author and release date
unknown.


This spoiler describes in detail how spells (and prayers) are gained,
used, and lost.  It also describes how intelligence or wisdom and
level affect the number of spells available, the chance of failure,
and the maximum number of mana points you have.

This last section of this spoiler describes the effects of every spell
and prayer.  It also discloses in what book the spell may be found,
what classes are able to use the spell, minimum level needed to use
the spell, mana cost, and base chance of spell failure.

A brief summary of the last section, listing only the books and what
spells they contain, can be found in BOOKS.SPO.

Previous versions of this spoiler file also included the effects of
every staff, wand, and rod.  These can now be found in OBJ-LONG.SPO
and have therefore been removed from this spoiler file

Please notify the author of any errors (however minor) that you find.
Also, it is my intention to provide complete information rather than
easy-to-understand information, so this spoiler is necessarily
verbose.  Suggestions to improve the format of this spoiler are
welcome (especially if they help make this spoiler easier to read).

This spoiler was written for Angband 3.0.5.  If you want only the most
accurate information for another version of Angband, you may wish to
acquire another version of this spoiler.


NOTES ON NOTATION
-----------------

The notation "XdY" indicates a number obtained by rolling an Y-sided
die X times.  (Thus 4d6 indicates a number from 4 to 24).

Unless stated otherwise, "level" always refers to the character level.
In the descriptions of learning and using spells, the term "spell"
applies to both magic spells and holy prayers.


LEARNING SPELLS
---------------

Before a spell can be used, it must be learned.  The number of spells
you can learn depends on your level and your intelligence (for mages,
rangers, and rogues) or wisdom (for priests and paladins), as shown in
table 1.

Rangers start gaining spells at level 3, rogues at level 5.  Fractions
are rounded to the nearest whole number.  Example: a 9th level ranger
with 18/73 intelligence has a maximum of 12 spells (from 3 up to 9 is
7 levels, multiplied by 1.7 = 11.9, rounded up to 12).

The number of spells you can learn will never exceed the number of
spells available to your class.  Some spells in the spellbooks are not
available to all classes.  These are marked (illegible) when browsing
the spellbook.

When the number of spells you can learn increases, a message is shown
("You can learn xxx more spell(s)/prayer(s)") and the word "Study" is
shown on the status bar.  No message is given if the status "Study"
was already activated.  You can use the "gain" command to learn a new
spell, provided you are not blind or confused and some light is
available.

For mages, rangers, and rogues, the game lets you choose which magic
spell to learn.  The chosen spell must meet the following criteria:
1. The spell must be available to your class (ie not "illegible"),
2. Your level must be equal to or higher than the minimum level of the
   spell selected (ie not "difficult"), and
3. You must not already know the spell.

For priests and paladins, you can only choose a book to gain a prayer
from.  The game will then randomly choose a holy prayer from that
book, governed by the same criteria as for magic spell above.

If your intelligence, wisdom, or level decreases, you may forget some
of the spells you have learned earlier.  First, you will forget all
spells with a minimum level higher than your new character level.
Next, the number of spells you may know is determined from your new
level and your new intelligence or wisdom; if you still know too many
spells, you will forget as many spells as needed to lower the number
of spells known to the new maximum.  The order in which spells will be
forgotten is the reverse of the order in which they were learned.  A
forgotten spell can not be used until it's remembered.

If the number of spells you can learn increases after you have
forgotten one or more spells, then you will start remembering those
spells again.  Spells will come back to you in the same order in which
they were originally learned.  You won't be able to learn new spells
until there are no more previously forgotten spells to remember.
(Note that there is one situation that allows you to learn new spells
before all previously forgotten spells are remembered: if you lose a
level, but increase your intelligence or wisdom, you won't be able to
remember the spells that are still above your level, but you may learn
other spells).


MANA / SPELL POINTS
-------------------

Mana is the magical energy a spellcaster has.  The amounts of mana is
measured in spell points (SP).  For spellcasters, both the maximum and
the current number of spell points are shown below the maximum and
current hit points.

The maximum number of spell points you may have is determined by level
and intelligence (for mages, rangers, and rogues) or wisdom (for
priests and paladins), as shown in table 1.

Rangers start gaining mana at level 3, rogues at level 5.  Fractions
are rounded down.  If you have at least 0.5 spell point (before
rounding), you get one spell point bonus.  Example: a 9th level ranger
with 18/73 intelligence has a maximum of 18 spell points (from 3 up to
9 is 7 levels, multiplied by 2.5 = 17.5, rounded down to 17 plus 1
bonus = 18).

Mages, rangers, and rogues may suffer a penalty to their maximum
number of spell points when they wear gloves.  Unless the gloves give
you Free Action or a bonus to dexterity, the maximum number of spell
points is reduced by 25%.

All spellcasters may suffer a penalty to their maximum number of spell
points from heavy armor.  The maximal combined weight of all armor
(equipment slots "g" through "l") for each class is given in table 2.
Exceeding the limit results in a penalty of 1 spell point per pound of
extra weight.

Everytime you attempt to use a spell, whether successful or not, the
mana required for that spell is subtracted from your current mana.  If
your current mana is insufficient, you may still attempt to use the
spell but the failure chance will increase and you risk damage to your
constitution, as described below.  The mana required for each spell is
given in the spell descriptions at the end of this spoiler.

When your current number of spell points is below the maximum, it will
slowly restore.  To determine the amount of spell points regenerated
each turn, first determine the regeneration percentage.  This is
usually 0.3%, but lack of food will lower this to 0.15% (weak), 0.05%
(fainting) or even to 0% (starving).  If you have regeneration, the
regeneration percentage is doubled.  The regeneration percentage is
also doubled when you are resting or searching.

After determining the regeneration percentage, the actual amount of
spell points regenerated per turn follows from this calculation:

 SP regenerated = (Max SP * regeneration%) + 0.008

Note: Fractions of spell points are kept, but never shown.

Example: a 9th level ranger with 18/73 intelligence has a maximum of
18 spell points.  If she is resting while being well-fed and wearing
an Amulet of Regeneration, the regeneration percentage is 1.2% (0.3%
for being well-fed, doubled for regeneration and doubled again for
resting).  She will restore (18 * 1.2%) + 0.008 or 0.224 spell points
per turn.


USING SPELLS
------------

In order to use a spell, issue either the "cast" or the "pray"
command.  You may not be blind or confused and some light has to be
available.

You can only use spells from spellbooks that are available to you
(either in your inventory or on the floor) and that you have already
learned.  Spells that you have forgotten can't be used until they are
remembered again.

If you try to use a spell that requires more mana than you currently
have, you are asked to confirm if you really want to try that spell.
Note that any attempt to use a spell that costs more mana than you
have can damage your constitution!  See below for details.

Once you have selected which spell to use, the game will determine if
the spell is succesful or not.  The base chance of failure for each
spell is given in the spell descriptions at the end of this spoiler
(marked %Fail).  This chance is reduced by 3 percent for each level
above the minimum level required for your class to use that spell.
The chance of failure is further reduced by an amount based on
intelligence (for mages, rangers, and rogues) or wisdom (for priests
and paladins), as shown in table 1.  If you have insufficient mana,
the chance of failure increases by 5% for every spell point you are
short of the amount needed.  Finally, if you are a priest wielding an
edged weapon, another 25% is added to the chance of failure, unless
the weapon is blessed.

After correcting the chance of failure for level, intelligence or
wisdom, lack of mana, and edged weapon use for priests, it is checked
against the minimum chance of spell failure, which is dependant on
intelligence (for mages, rangers, and rogues) or wisdom (for priests
and paladins), as shown in table 1.

After applying the minimum chance of spell failure, the stun condition
is checked.  Attempting to use spells while stunned will boost the
chance of failure by 15% when stunned or by 25% when heavily stunned.

If, after all these calculations, the failure chance exceeds 95%, it
is lowered to 95%.

Example: a 9th level ranger with 18/73 intelligence tries to cast a
Stinking Cloud.  For rangers, this spell has mimimum level 7, base
chance of failure of 40% and the mana needed is 5 SP.  Unfortunately,
the current mana of this ranger is a mere 3 SP.  Her chance of failure
is determined as follows: base chance (40%) minus 3 times the number
of levels above minimum level for the spell ((9-7) * 3 = 6%) minus
adjustment for 18/73 INT (12%) plus 5 times the amount of SP she is
short ((5-3) * 5 = 10%): 40 - 6 - 12 + 10 = 32%.  Since the minimum
chance of failure for 18/73 INT is 5% (for rangers - the 4% chance
applies to mages and priests only), the calculated value of 32% will
be used to determine if the spell of Stinking Cloud succeeds.


After calculating the chance of failure, Angband checks if you succeed
in using the spell.  If the spell fails, a message is given to notify
you of the failure.  If the spell succeeds, the effects described in
the spell descriptions at the end of this spoiler take place.  If this
is the first time you succeed in using the spell, you will gain an
amount of experience equal to the experience points for the spell
multiplied by the minimum level required for the spell.

Regardless of success or failure, your mana will be reduced by the
amount needed to cast the spell, but never below zero.  If a spell was
cast with insufficient mana, you will always faint (even if you have
Free Action) and be paralyzed for 1d(5*short+1) turns (where short is
the number of spell points you were short.  There is also a 3 in 8
chance that your current constitution is reduced and a 1 in 8 chance
that both your current and maximum constitution are reduced.  In both
cases, the amount of constitution lost is from 4 to 12.5%.


TABLES
------

For easier reference, all modifiers used in the calculations above are
gathered together in two tables.  The first table lists all effects of
intelligence or wisdom: number of spells per level, amount of mana per
level, adjustment to chance of spell failure, and minimum chance of
spell failure.  The second table lists all class-dependent issues:
minimum level for gaining and using spells, maximum armor weight,
minimum chance of spell failure, and primary statistic (intelligence
or wisdom).

 Rogue    5           350 pounds          5%            Intelligence


STANDARD CHANCE TO RESIST
-------------------------

The more powerful monsters are less likely to be affected by many of
the effects of spells.  The standard chance to resist an effect is
based on the monster's monster level and your character level:

* Monster levels up to and including 11 have no chance to resist;
* Monster levels from 12 up to and including your character level
  resist if 1d(character level -10) < monster level - 10;
* Monster levels > your character level always resist.

In the spell descriptions below, "standard chance to resist" is used
to indicate that this chance applies to the particular effect.


BOOKS OF MAGIC SPELLS
---------------------

This section of the spoiler describes the effects of every magic
spell.  A brief summary of all magic spells with only level, mana and
fail% may be found in BOOKS.SPO.

Many spells will produce some kind of ball.  For all ball effects,
damage is reduced by range.  The amount of damage at the center is
listed in the descriptions.  This damage is reduced by 50% at range 1,
by 66% at range 2, by 75% at range 3 (for large balls), and by 80% at
range 4 (for giant balls).

How monster resistances or sensitivities reduce or increase the damage
of various spell effects will be described in the spoiler file
MON-DAM.SPO.

  Adds charges to a stack of wands or staves.  Failure occurs 1 time
  in (102+level/5-level of wand or staff-10*(# of charges))/15, and
  destroys all wands or staves in the stack.  If successful, the stack
  gains 2+1d((2+level/5)/(2+level of wand or staff)+1) charges.

(c) Turn Stone to Mud
    Mage   : Level  9, Mana  7, %Fail 44, Exp   8

  Other monsters have the standard chance to resist.  If a monster
  fails this chance, it still gets a (monster level) in 90 chance to
  avoid the effect.  If the monster fails this second chance as well,
  the game attempts to generate a new, single, non-unique monster
  (with monster generation level equal to the average of monster level
  and dungeon level + 5) that is no more than 20 monster levels away
  from the original monster; the original monster then transforms into
  the new monster, at full health.

  floor where the spell is cast.  The stair will always be down from
  town, and always be up from level 99 if Sauron has not been killed,
  level 100 if Morgoth has not been killed, and level 127.

  Teleports you from the dungeon to the town or from the town to the
  deepest level you have visited in the dungeon.  If you are in the
  dungeon but above the deepest level you have visited, you are given
  the option to reset the recall depth.  If you do so, future recalls
  will take you to your current level, or to the deepest level you
  have visited after resetting recall depth.
  The recall effect is not immediate; it is delayed by 14+1d20 turns.

  radius are darkened; all spaces (except the epicenter) have a 15%
  chance to be damaged.  If a damaged space is occupied by a monster
  that can't bore through rock or pass through walls, the monster
  takes 4d8 points of damage and moves to a non-damaged, nonoccupied
  space adjacent to the damaged space.  If there is no space
  available, or if the monster can't move, the monster is removed.
  Each damaged non-floor space is replaced by floor.  Each damaged
  floor space is replaced by a random type of wall and all objects on
  it are removed, unless one of them is an artifact (in that case, the
  damaged floor space is unaffected and all objects are retained).

  Shoots a radius-4 confusion ball with power equal to your character
  level at its center.  Uniques or monsters that resist confusion are
  not affected.  Other monsters get a chance to save, based on monster
  level versus the power of the confusion ball: monster levels < 12
  always fail to save, monster levels > power always save and all
  other monster levels save if 1d(power-10) < monster level - 10.
  If a monsters fails to save, it will be confused for 1+3d(power/2)

HOLY BOOKS OF PRAYER
--------------------

This section of the spoiler describes the effects of every holy
prayer.  A brief summary of all holy prayers with only level, mana and
fail% may be found in BOOKS.SPO.

Many prayers will produce some kind of ball.  For all ball effects,
damage is reduced by range.  The amount of damage at the center is
listed in the descriptions.  This damage is reduced by 50% at range 1,
by 66% at range 2, and by 75% at range 3 (for large balls only).

How monster resistances or sensitivities reduce or increase the damage
of various prayer effects will be described in the spoiler file
MON-DAM.SPO.

  chance to be damaged.  If a damaged space is occupied by a monster
  that can't bore through rock or pass through walls, the monster
  takes 4d8 points of damage and moves to a non-damaged, nonoccupied
  space adjacent to the damaged space.  If there is no space
  available, or if the monster can't move, the monster is removed.
  Each damaged non-floor space is replaced by floor.  Each damaged
  floor space is replaced by a random type of wall and all objects on
  it are removed, unless one of them is an artifact (in that case, the
  damaged floor space is unaffected and all objects are retained).
  This prayer has no effect when used in the town.
