I guess that works. I was just using it for a different purpose, where I cast the spell but don't deal any damage, in which case the numbers are way off. I suppose I'll just have to crunch the numbers myself. Thanks for the insight as to why it's different! For those curious, I'm level 64 magic, but what I was doing was donning full plate and stuff to drop my magic attack bonus (got down to -68) then attacking the blue dragon in the basement of the Heroes' Guild with Wind Strike because it wouldn't kill him, I'd just be able to sit there casting over and over. I eventually moved up to Fire Strike because I found I didn't deal damage with that either. Just bought ~45k mind runes to go to town with. The only catch with this training is if I don't keep an eye on it, I log out. Meh, I'll live with it.
