These are the spells that are available to players in the HentaiVerse.
Spell Costs
Note that spell MP costs are all a percentage of your Level, rounded up.
For example, 'Cure' has a base cost of 20, meaning its MP cost is 20% of your level. At level 51, Cure costs: 51 * 0.20 = 10.2 -> 11 MP.
Spell Durations
The duration of spells lasting more than one turn depends on their base duration, the number of Ability Points invested (where applicable) and the relevant Proficiency. Each additional AP increases the duration by 25%, and each point of proficiency by 1%. These numbers multiply together. Expressed as a formula:
duration = base_duration * (1 + additional_AP / 4) * (1 + proficiency / 100)
The result is rounded to the nearest whole number of turns.
Offensive Magic
These spells are used to inflict direct damage on monsters. On each Ability tier, there is a single-target spell and an area-of-effect spell. Area-of-effect spells inflict strong damage on the targeted monster and less damage on the rest, but are also more expensive and take longer to cast than the single target versions. However, each addition Ability Point invested in the AOE spells increases its damage dealt (by 25% when maxed) and decreases it's MP cost (by 50% when maxed), in addition to decreasing the associated single-target spell's MP cost (by 25% when maxed). Each type of monster has different levels of resistance to each damage type, which should be taken into consideration when choosing which spell to cast at which target. Monsters hit by offensive magic may also be afflicted by a set of negative status effects.
