- Main article: Custom Skills
Ancient Spellbooks are rare items that grant an ancient spell (learned by Priests and Mages).
They come in 2 forms:
- White Magic (for Priests)
- Black Magic (for mages)
The ancient magic can be used after class changing to non compatible classes too. The class requirement only relates to the class needed when learning the magic spell
These spells are incredibly powerful and require special charges to use once equipped.
Learning Ancient Magic[]
With a book in possession, a player can visit the Custom Skill trainer at the Ministry of Arcanum. A character must be level 30 and the correct class to learn the skill from a book.
In exchange for the book, the NPC will teach you the skill tied to the book. Once learnt, you can equip the race skill to a custom skill slot by choosing "skill setting" at the same NPC.
Each Ancient Magic book will drop as ?Parchment. If in a party, it will appear in the Drawbox.
Once learnt, the spell is permanently unlocked for the character, even when class changing to fighter, thief etc.
Charges and Plv[]
Ancient spells use charges
the maximum ammount of charges depends on the PLV, increased by scrolls.
to refill the charges visit the custome skills npc in the ministry of arcanum
