The attributes and other stats[]

Vital Stats[]

  • Health : The character's current and maximum life points. Life indicates how much ingoing damage a character can sustain before being defeated and killed on the battle fields.

  • Fight : Shows the speed multiplier of attacking with weapons.
  • Cast : Shows the speed multiplier of casting abilities and spells.

The ability trees[]

There are four magic schools which each have three specializations.

Also there are three combat skill trees with each two or four specializations. Each specialization unlocks certain things, e.g. Piercing Weapons of Light Combat enables the player to use higher level daggers while Necromancy of Black Magic enables the character to use necromancy spells of the respective level.

See below for more precise details of how specialization and main skill are interconnected:

Dolch04 Light Combat Arts
Piercing Weapons - Light Blade Weapons - Light Blunt Weapons - Light Armor
Titanhammer Heavy Combat Arts
Large Blade Weapons - Large Blunt Weapons - Heavy Armor - Shields
Bogen09 Ranged Combat Arts

Robe09 White Magic
Life - Nature - Boons
NorSet2 Black Magic
Death - Necromancy - Curse

The respective schools can be leveled by spending skill points if the required attribute requirements have been met. Different ability trees have different requirements to be leveled up.

Ability categories[]

The abilities can be divided into many categories. Some of them will be named here in advance to avoid further confusion.

Ability direction[]

  • Directed spells
    Those spells are directed against one single target and thus can use click'n'fight-system.
    e.g. Rock Bullet
  • Undirected spells
    Those spells dont have a direction and are casted on the caster itself.
    e.g. Summon Fire Elemental
  • Area-directed spells
    Those spells are casted in the targeted area.
    e.g. Zone of Healing
  • Auras
    Those spells are automatically placed on targets by a passive aura that was previously casted.
    e.g. Aura of Lifetap

Ability duration[]

  • Immediate abilities
    These spells dont have a duration. They just deal their effect and then are over.
    e.g. Pain
  • Duration-based abilities
    These spells have a set duration. They work during that time and then run out.
    e.g. Rain of Fire
  • Sustained abilities
    These spells have infinite duration but consume mana over time.
    When the mana isn't high enough the spell is then canceled.
    e.g. Summon Skeleton

Special category[]

  • Essence and Almightiness
    With The Breath of Winter the new Essence and Almightiness abilities were included in SpellForce. Essence only requires the main ability tree such as Mind Magic whereas the Allmightyness requires all sub-abilities as well on the spells rank to be cast.

Useable abilities[]

After an ability has been leveled the character gains access to new abilities. In the combat related ability trees the respective skill will be automatically be placed in the character's spellbook. The magic schools only gain the possibility to cast a spell of the respective level. However the spell first has to be found or bought and then pasted into the spellbook manually. A list of all spells will now follow up.

Notes:

  • Please note that all abilities marked with (BoW) are only available for Breath of Winter and Shadow of the Phoenix avatars.
  • All abilities marked with (SotP) are only available for characters in the Shadow of the Phoenix campaign.
  • The fighting skills will unlock automatically after having reached a certain level which is shown in the brackets next to the ability name.
  • The magic skills need a scroll and the corresponding skill level. Some abilities (e.g. Pain) are available from the start while others (e.g. Summon Blade) are available only after having reached a threshold. The respective ability threshold is shown in the brackets right to the ability name.
