	Harness Power counts as a magical skill for the purposes of [[runestaff]] training. For someone not using a runestaff, training 1x to level might be best (i.e. a level 13 sorcerer trains 13 times in this skill.) For a runestaff user training twice more (to the point of "level plus 2", so the level 13 sorcerer would have 15 ranks in this skill) is in general trivial; this only nets a total of 2 more mana points at ranks above 40, and the defense in terms of overall runestaff training makes less than 2% difference in the DS in the example, which diminishes to under 1% at higher levels. ~~Additionally~~, for the first 40 ranks where the skill bonus per rank is greater than 1, access to the additional mana may be quite desirable.
