EYE teaching Arcana only? 07/25/2014 07:28 PM CDT
Hi all, so I just noticed that I had Eye up and wasn't doing much else, so noticed that only my Arcana skill was moving. It was pretty obvious it was pulsing with my EYE spell as well, is this a glitch?

Showing Magic skills with field experience.
SKILL: Rank/Percent towards next rank/Amount learning/Mindstate Fraction
Arcana: 165 12% absorbing (15/34)
(sad I know! I don't really mind actually learning it)

Concentrating harder on the sounds you hear, you can sense pale (7/21) mana to the northwest, lambent (12/21) mana to the south, and shining (13/21) mana to the northeast.
You sense the Eillie's Cry spell upon you, which will last for about forty-nine roisaen.
You sense the Rage of the Clans spell upon you, which will last for about one roisan.
You sense the Eye of Kertigen spell upon you, which will last until you fail to provide 12 mana for it.

I don't think it could have been CRY or RAGE doing that, so it must have been EYE.

I can see this happening if you are casting EYE at significantly lower than your magic skills thereby not learning anything in those, but using cambrinth to fuel it and thus learning arcana as you charge/discharge it.

Also... did you recently invoke or study a spell scroll? Doing either of those will teach a huge bunch of arcana all in one go.

This is strange, a bit more testing confirms it is not me prepping it at too low...I have tried 12, 15, 18, 20, 22 so far and 22 backfired on me. I haven't learned anything other than Arcana for any pulses with EYE.

Each time I tested I did not have anything else going on skill-wise and nothing that would give me Arcana. I definitely haven't done anything with scrolls either.

It also teaches Arcana very well, I can go from 0 to 34 in a couple of minutes.
