• Mana Shield's efficiency is influenced by Magic Attack.

Magic Damage

• Magic Damage is the actual damage dealt to a target by a spell.
• The formula for Magic Damage is as follows:

{Base Damage + [Wand Bonus * (Charge Multiplier)] + (Spell Constant * Magic Attack) + (Damage Enchants * Damage Constant)}
 [1 + (Bolt Mastery Bonus + Elemental Mastery Bonus + Magic Weapon Mastery Bonus + Staff Elemental Level Bonus + Hebona Set Bonus + Rosemary Glove Bonus)]
 Charge Multiplier * Full Charge Multiplier * Thunder Multiplier * Distance Multiplier
