Magic damage and caster levels

[Falkor]

Some spells inflict higher damage with higher caster levels. Is there any formula describing that increase?

[Endoperez]

It varies wildly. I checked Dr Praetorious' spell guide, and it seems to put most damage spells at +1 or +2 damage/extra level. Some exceptions (stun seems to be +2 to +5/level, heal and healing touch are is +10/level, touch spells often give like +5 dam/level), but nothing major.

Hmm, Smite Demon is +5/level with 0 base, while banishment is +2/level with 3 base... Priest communions with holy levels above 5 start to favor Smite Demon against demon thugs, because it deals so much damage, but that's not important.

Thanks Endoperez
that spell guide from Dr Praetorius is really handy.

Would someone mind pointing me to the link to the good Dr.s guide? I have been working on a guide myself...

Thanks!
