==Lore Benefit==

Training in [[Elemental Lore, Earth]] increases the spell's [[damage factor]] (DF). 

{| {{prettytable}}
|-
|'''Earth Lore Ranks'''||'''<center>DF Increase</center>'''
|-
|<center>1 to 50</center>||0.001 per rank
|-
|<center>51 to 100</center>||0.001 per two ranks
|-
|<center>101 to 200</center>||0.001 per four ranks
|}

*Note: Damage factor truncates at three decimal places.
:E.g., with 126 ranks of EL: Earth the DF increase is:

: (50 * 0.001)  +  (50/2 * 0.001)  + [[trunc]]( 26/4) * 0.001)  = 0.081 not 0.0815

[[Cone of Elements (518)]] can cast a multi-fire version of this spell with 20 ranks of Earth Lore and all damage factor increases will carry over to the other spell.
