'''Minor Elemental Edge''' is a spell that imparts a temporary bonus equivalent to a +15 (3x) enchant to weapons, including [[Runestaff|runestaves]] and [[Unarmed combat system|unarmed combat]] hand and foot gear. The spell's duration is one (1) swing per [[level]] of the caster. An 'edged' weapon is usable by characters of any level or profession (normal level/enchant bonus restrictions do not apply). The +15 bonus applies to both [[Attack strength|attack]] (AS) and [[Defensive strength|defensive]] strength (DS). Each swing reduces the remaining number of swings by one (1) even when the attack misses the target.

Warmages of any level gain an additional benefit from the spell when it is [[EVOKE]]D. It will enhance a weapon to grant +10 [[enhancive]] weapon [[skill bonus]], as determined by the weapon (e.g. a dagger will grant +10 to Edged Weapons skill bonus). Training in [[Elemental Lore, Earth]] will increase the bonus by +1 per seed 7 [[summation]] of lore ranks. A few notes for the EVOKEd version only:
[[War mage]]s of any level gain an additional benefit from the spell when it is [[EVOKE]]d with a weapon in hand. Evoking will add an [[enhancive]] effect to any weapon (i.e., they can be enhancive, [[weighted]], [[enchant]]ed, [[flaring]], etc.), adding +10 to [[skill bonus]], as determined by the weapon (e.g. a dagger will grant +10 to [[Edged Weapons]] skill bonus). Training in [[#Lore Benefit|Elemental Lore, Earth]] will increase the enchant bonus. This effect is self-evoke only; others will not receive the bonus if the weapon is passed to them, and only wizards may evoke Minor Elemental Edge, even when invoked from a scroll. A couple of notes on the enhancive benefits:


* The spell is still cast on the weapon itself (but you do not need to specify the weapon; it will check your hands).
* If 1x trained in [[Thrown Weapons]], the spell will always grant Thrown Weapons skill regardless of the weapon held when evoking.
⚫
* While the bonus can be applied to UAC gloves and boots and [[brawling]] weapons, only one will apply; the effect does not stack. Similarly, two-weapon combat mages can only gain the enhancive boost from one of their weapons at a time.
* The bonus only works for the caster, as such the weapon cannot be passed to others for the same bonus.

* If you're 1x trained in [[Thrown Weapons]], the spell will always grant Thrown Weapons skill regardless of the weapon the spell is cast upon.
The regular and evoke versions do not stack.
* Only a wizard may evoke 902.

Minor Elemental Edge is a spell that imparts a temporary bonus equivalent to a +15 (3x) enchant to plain (non-magical, non-blessed, non-flaring, non-weighted) weapons, including runestaves and unarmed combat hand and foot gear. The duration is 1 swing per level of the caster, and each swing reduces the remaining number of swings by 1 even when the attack misses the target. An "edged" weapon is usable by characters of any level or profession as normal level/enchant bonus restrictions do not apply. The +15 bonus applies to both attack (AS) and defensive strength (DS).

War mages of any level gain an additional benefit from the spell when it is EVOKEd with a weapon in hand. Evoking will add an enhancive effect to any weapon (i.e., they can be enhancive, weighted, enchanted, flaring, etc.), adding +10 to skill bonus, as determined by the weapon (e.g. a dagger will grant +10 to Edged Weapons skill bonus). Training in Elemental Lore, Earth will increase the enchant bonus. This effect is self-evoke only; others will not receive the bonus if the weapon is passed to them, and only wizards may evoke Minor Elemental Edge, even when invoked from a scroll. A couple of notes on the enhancive benefits:

  • If 1x trained in Thrown Weapons, the spell will always grant Thrown Weapons skill regardless of the weapon held when evoking.
  • While the bonus can be applied to UAC gloves and boots and brawling weapons, only one will apply; the effect does not stack. Similarly, two-weapon combat mages can only gain the enhancive boost from one of their weapons at a time.

The regular and evoke versions do not stack.

Usage

  • PREP 902 | CAST {target} or INCANT 902
  • PREP 902 | EVOKE to cast the war mage-only enhancive benefit with any weapon in hand
  • INCANT 902 EVOKE to evoke this spell once using INCANT
  • INCANT SET EVOKE 902 to always evoke this spell using INCANT 902

Lore Benefit
