Systems

Spell/Skill Levels removed, replaced with Mastery
Spell/Skill leveling is an arbitrarily punitive system of punishing you for not playing enough. Mastery, on the surface resembles spell/skill leveling, but functions dramatically differently. Each spell/skill will have a small bonus that maxes out at 100% mastery. Currently, mastering a spell or skill (same rate across the board!) can be done within an hour or two; this change will allow you to improve your spells/skills at a reasonable rate while hunting, instead of sitting around letting a macro play the game for you, while not being punished for not having the skill or spell maxed.
