If I'm a Necro working on spell research, can I still make other class spells? Say Mage.

Thanks

It depends on what level spell research you're working on.

If you're doing the "old" spell research (using "Words," "Runes," and such) then in general you'll be able to make:

1) all necro spells (level 16 through high-50's)
2) all practice runes
3) scribed swatches
4) LoY priest spells up to the high 50's levels.

Generally, you won't be able to make Enchanter, Wizzard or Mage spells (with some exceptions). The "old" spell research uses a book container that you get from the gypsy/lightstone quest, or the updated book container you got in the Gulf of Gunthak after your research hit 101. The trivials on these run from 16 to 227 or so.

If you're doing the "new" research, you're using the vendor bought "kit" looking container doing the more complicated combines (the ones with a gajillion subcombines for everything). That will NOT make any of the spells I mentioned above. It will make:

1) various subcombine items using water, salt, gnomish heat sources, vials, etc
2) Level 60+ spells for all classes (regardless of your class). The spells are generally trivial of 200+.

I hope that helps. Spell research is a little more time-consuming now, as there are two versions in play at once. The old version restricts intelligence based caster spells (but not priest spells) to your own class while the new research is more class non-specific.

Good luck no matter which route you take!
