Yah you do the quest and all get the spell that does 200 shock in 10 foot but umm i need 3800 magica so umm how might one go about getting that?

The cost of spells depends on your skill in that (or those) school(s) of magic.
I'm guessing that you don't have very high Destruction, 5 or so?

At level 100 you get a cost of something like 710 mana.
To get this:
100 int(+200)
atronach(+150)
high elf(+100)
enchant boots/greaves/chest/gloves/helm/shield with +50 magic enchant(+300)
To get 200+150+100+300=750
Or, you could make your own spell, like I did, and have a 900 damage spell over 3 seconds.

So basically this spell is useless to anyone who isn't maxed out in Magicka, which is 99.9% of people... :erm:

This spell is useless to anyone with magicka passed what is optimal, or to anyone intelligent enough to make their own spells.

On the whole, if you want to use the spell and actually kill some stuff, try battlemaging (not recomended unless you are desparate to use the spell)
Epos Nix on 9/4/2006 at 09:07
What is your definition of "battlemaging"? And how does this help increase your Magicka to the point that you can use the spell?
Cardel on 9/4/2006 at 09:13
Battlemaging as in being a battlemage. They start off with good magicka stats, and level up using swords as well as magic. In my opinion, its the best mage class, with a backup of swords in case magic runs low, unlike most other mage classes.
Epos Nix on 9/4/2006 at 09:16
Okay... but the point of the thread is that this spell requires somewhere in the range of 3000 Magicka for the normal spellcaster, and 700 or so for someone with maxed Destruction. A player with max intelligence has only 200 base Magicka, which means you'd need to buff Magicka somewhere in the 500 range just to cast this spell ONCE. :eek:

ah.. Now I gets it... Sorry
