Spell fuel and repeated casting
On this page
Equip ordinary or concentrated arcane essence in Ammo to cast. The equipped type determines payment; arrows and essence share this slot.
Putting it into practice
Equip ordinary or concentrated arcane essence in Ammo to cast. The equipped type determines payment; arrows and essence share this slot.
| Equip your fuel | Equip Arcane essence or Concentrated arcane essence in Ammo. Essence carried only in the bag does not enable a cast; bows use the same slot for arrows. |
| Prepare repeated casts | Count each spell's action and equipped-fuel payment. Insufficient fuel refuses the cast; it does not automatically select another stack or combine fuel types. |
Choose ammunition before casting
Essence carried in the bag without being equipped does not enable a cast. Equip the chosen essence as ammunition. A cast with insufficient equipped fuel is refused; ordinary and concentrated stacks are never mixed or selected automatically. The last consumed unit clears the Ammo slot. Bow attacks require equipped arrows instead.
What concentrated fuel strengthens
Concentrated arcane essence gives 5% extra direct spell damage, including eligible area hits and Spell Echo. Healing, ward strength and later Burn ticks keep their normal values. It uses the same essence count as ordinary fuel, including staff discount and free-hand surcharge. Preparing a Magic charge again pays the normal costs and replaces the prepared charge instead of stacking it.
Training and conversion
Open the essence and recipe pages for current Divination requirements, materials, duration and XP. Conversion of ordinary into concentrated essence grants no additional XP. Summoning keeps its ordinary essence material costs.
