Template:Spell Cross-References

Spells give mages the ability to devastate their foes, and to protect and heal themselves as well as their allies. Spells are used by mages instead of talents. Mage spells include the class-based Arcane, Arcane Warrior, Blood Mage, Shapeshifter, Spirit Healer schools in addition to the four main schools of magic: Primal, Creation, Spirit, and Entropy. The downloadable content Warden's Keep also adds the Power of Blood school.

A Warden mage starts the game at level 1 with the spell Arcane Bolt in addition to two other spells of choice. Each level thereafter a mage gains one spell per level, and additional extra bonus spells are awarded at various points during the story. One free spell is gained after reviving Arl Eamon during The Urn of Sacred Ashes, another upon entering Denerim during the Battle of Denerim. A total of 5 more spells can be attained through tomes.

Threat Information

See Also Threat.

Many spells generate threat on hit or activation. In addition to the threat number found in the spell mechanics' descriptions, any damage dealt by the spell will generate additional threat. This additional threat is based on the damage amount in relation to an enemy's maximum health. E.g. dealing 50 damage to an enemy with 100 hit points will generate 50 points of threat, i.e. 100 * (damage/enemy health at fully healed hitpoints).
