Summary
Mods "[Magiclysm] Progressive Difficulty reduction the more spells of that school you know"
Purpose of change
Realized that if you know 30 Animist spells and find a new one it's as hard to cast as if you were a raw apprentice (ignoring Spellcraft skill) and that seems a bit odd.
Describe the solution
Implement an
opens_spellbook
EoC that reduces the Difficulty of all spells in a school by 1 for every 75 levels of spells you have in that school. This encourages specialization, since the more spell levels you know the more likely you are to be able to quickly pick up a new spell without having to devote too much time to studying it.The bonus caps at -6 Difficulty at 450 total spell levels known.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Testing
It works.
This makes Difficulty go negative sometimes, but there seems to be no ill effects from doing so.
