Re: Astral Shield
 

I just assumed because of the charcol shield it was fixed. Normally you can tell because of the + in the spell dscription if the spell can be powered up. Fire shield has no such marker in the description, as I doubt any of the damage via buff spells do.

Do all improve will higher spell paths? Does a 9w mage get more bang out of Breath of winter for instance?

Re: Astral Shield
 

not sure, its alot easier to tell with spells that have range/dame with a + on it
