Main spells

Direct Damage (Nukes) They come in 2 basic types: fast-casting low damage spells and slow-casting large damage spells.

Area of Effect (AoE) These spells effect all mobs in the area or encounter. These are low damage slow casting spells and can be very dangerous to your life and the life of your group if not used correctly.

Damage over Time (Dot) These spells do just what they say do a certian amount of damage per tic to a mob for a set number of tics. Area of Effect Damage over Time (AEDot) These spells combine the effects of both the AoE spells and the Dots. These spells are our slowest and least damaging spells but they do the same damage to all mobs in the encounter/area so over all they can be the most damaging spell we have and the most dangerous to use willy nilly.

Buffs These spells are used to buff up the caster and their group's stats and resists.
