How to Use Evaluating Intelligence
Evaluate Intelligence enhances the damage output of magic spells cast through the Magery skill.
Offense Spell Damage: The higher a player’s skill in Eval Int, the more damage their offensive spells (such as Energy Bolt, Flamestrike, or Magic Arrow) will inflict on opponents. This skill is essential for mages who rely on their magic power in both PvP and PvE combat situations.
Dodging (Defensive Wrestling): Players who have anatomy and evaluating intelligence will benefit from defensive wrestling. Chance to Dodge = (Anatomy + Evaluating Intelligence) / 2). Bonus is up to 50% at Grandmaster. Does not stack with Wrestling skill.
In addition to increasing magical damage, evaluating intelligence can also be used to gauge a target’s intelligence. Below are the response messages from evaluating intelligence when you target another player or NPC.
