Maximum values have been increased for certain enhancing magic, dark magic, and blue magic spells whose potency is commensurate with casting skill.

Anybody figured out which spells this affected? and by how much?

Stoneskin would be an obvious one. Dreadspikes, etc

You've tested? Keep in mind unless you're lvl 85 and fully skilled up you might not be able to see an increase.

I highly doubt Dreadspikes will be changed since the maximum value is 50% of total HP. Since it is percentage based, it scales itself.

My guess for some spells that will change:
Phalanx
Stoneskin

IDK what other dark magic spells had a cap. I mean I could be wrong.

I just got 102 from barspell on rdm.

Also as far as dark there has been recent testing I saw that suggested skill over 300 only added macc not potency for drain/aspir.

Testing stoneskin now

Hmm.. That's alot of MND and very little improvement :P
Maybe it's more based on skill alone now?

With those numbers and current formula at work, you should be getting 514...
