Dark Age Of Camelot: The Grab Bag

Q: My Cleric received an item with a bonus to "stat enhancement spell effectiveness", but it doesn't seem to be doing anything to the buffs I'm casting. What is this bonus supposed to do?

A: Spoke the Item Mistress: "There are hard caps in place that limit the amount of stat increases a player may receive from spells. The new stat enhancement bonus items from Atlantis will not allow players to go over these limits. Instead, players will be able to use these bonuses to achieve more effective stat and armor factor buffs from lower level spells."

Basically, it will make lower level buffs, buff for more, but with the cheaper concentration costs of the lower level buffs.

If you need a quick reminder of the hard cap numbers:

Hard cap for spec buffs: Player level * 1.5 * 1.25 (93 at level 50)
Hard cap for baseline buffs: Player level * 1.25 (62 at level 50)
Hard cap for buffs from items: Player level * 1.5 (75 at level 50)
